Åland Islands

   Thursday and Friday of this week were spent at the Åland Islands. Here are some facts about these islands.

•  autonomous, demilitarised,monolingually Swedish-speaking region of Finland 
• Åland comprises Fasta Åland ("Main Island", on which 90% of the population resides)^[5] and a further 6,500 skerries and islands to its east
• Åland has its own flag, has issued its own postage stamps since 1984, runs its own police force, and is a member of the Nordic Council. Since 2005 the Åland Islands also have had their own airline, Air Åland.   

I think the best way to talk about the trip is by pictures.
