The 5th day: Any Given Sunday...

Another day the sun wakes me up, and this is the fifth consecutive day carrying out the Sun in Turku, Finland. Although it is August and we are o summer It's a record that we were having such good weather. Although this time, the awakening was not as peaceful as the previous days. Anyway, I was in my bed ok, but my mouth was dry, everything was spinning round and the room smelled ... well to ... (Putrefaction due to the decomposition of a body would say anyone who would enter suddenly) Let's just say that smelled to Erasmus ok? So, I have a fucking huge hangover what I think it added the accumulated fatigue of those frantic days of vertiginous activity from Wednesday that I had been performing.

Bluntly, I would say that the morning of this day is almost non- existent, having arrived the previous day at 6 am, It was logical to look at the clock and it showed almost four in the afternoon. Anyway, I still got get up, clear my head, get dressed and the first thing I did was go to recycle cans that I have been collecting the previous day. So I went down and headed to the supermarket that we had there in Päivänpaiste it was a K-market if I do not remember wrong. I had a lot but I realized that not everyone give you money, just for those that are bought in Finland and not those ones that the people buy at tax-free shops when they make a trip in a boat, so those ones do not work. At least I got enough money to buy snacks with which to address an evening devoted almost entirely to watch football (which I already missed) and more specifically the team of my loves and one of my deepest passions, Athletic Club of Bilbao.

Now once back at home and after eating something, I went to the computer and I started to chat on Facebook. There Any opened me a  conversation. She said that the girls and she had planned to go for a walk around Turku, and as I had plenty of time before the game started and as I wanted to clear my head so I told them That  I  encouraged to accompany them. So before football started, I went for a walk in "the town" with Nuria, Any and Lourdes, a new girl from Córdoba who had arrived the day before to Päivänpaiste, which we already knew all Spanish people from Paivanpaiste thanks to Erasmusu forum ;) and who I could not meet the day before for being at the concert with Eloy. It was a pleasant walk, a Turku Sunday afternoon there is no one on the streets, given that Finland is a country where people usually are not in the streer and the weather usually not invited to be on it much I thought was normal to see the city so empty. There some pictures tha we did about that walk near the river which has a very nice ride and from which there is a wonderful view of the Cathedral of Turku. Coming Back home It was the football time, Athletic drawed to 1 against Rayo Valecano and Madrid scored six goals to Zaragoza I think. I was surprised of How Athletic was playing, They began to implement the new style of play embodied by Marcelo Bielsa who, at first it would not be very effective, at the end gave us results throughout the season.

For the rest of the day, we decided to go to the Pub that are in the area, near the supermarket. Although the site does not have much charm because it is a somewhat grothy bar, not bad prices and after all have very good service and a pool table where you can play for free! What a beatings I got there today. When we were tired of the bar we went for another walk in the kakka /the forest near Paivanpaiste), We discovered a kind of clear ares, with not much trees where we sat chatting and had a nice time. And when we aere coming back it was time to make crazy things. guided by curiosity we started to explore Päivänpaste browsisng and discovering the depth and storage rooms, where there were dozens of bikes on. We made a little bit the bad guy and we tried to see if there was any "loose" to catch it during "a moment" and take a walk around. At the end we fide some, but what was done after with them it's a secret ;)
