I nearly missed my train!

I was almost too late to catch my train to Helsinki, frankly too close for comfort. I was, literally, the last one on, sweating and breathing hard. I woke up a little late but encountered a longer wait in the metro than I anticipated. When I could, I ran hard. I arrived in the train station about 2 mins. early but it turned out that the international station was around the corner and down the street. I turned around and ran back out and around the train station. I took a chance on a particular direction and lucked out. As I ran in I saw a police officer, said the number of my train in Russian too him and several people told me to hurry and ushered me on board. I guess I should have gotten up earlier. Thus far the ride to Helsinki is pretty though. . .if I could only get my heart to slow down a bit. :)
