Baltic Cruises Part II: Pictures from Helsinki to Stockholm

So what do you see once you're aboard a Baltic cruise ship? The pics below, snapped during my trip from Helsinki to Stockholm, give a sneak peek of the Nordic panorama that unfolds: cliffs peppered with pines, islands dotted with red cabins and lighthouses. Closer to the cities, military fortresses welcome the ships.
As the day draws to a close, majestic sunsets give way to misty nights. And if you go on deck at night, you can often see fog enveloping the islets, giving the ship a forlorn quality to it. (If that makes you sad and cold, head back in for some drinks.)
