How goes it? I am happy and I am going to the Temple today with my best friend from my ward...
Anywhooo... I visited Turku/Åbo at the end of November. It was a blast. I spent four days in the old capitol of my country, which in my humble opinion should have been kept as the capitol... As a person from Tampere/Tammerfors I should maybe expected to NOT like Turku, but like my father - I do like Turku and have liked it for a long time.
I stayed at my friends' place and they were so kind to me and I could "do my stuff" there in peace, like reading, writing and listening to music. I also loved attending the zoom -meetings that I had during my stay. My lovely friends are originally from Jyväskylä. We have known each other for years...
Sorry, long intro... :D
I spent four fabulous days in Turku. On Thursday I arrived and didn't meet with the missionaries that day, I rested from my trip to Turku. I arrived in the morning. OK. Sorry for the long backstory. I am feeling very much like I need to write a lot today LOL.
SO, on Friday I went with the bus (for FREE by the way): into the center of the city. The bus is free until 12.59 on weekdays if you have a walked, which I do have. Oopsie! Off-topic again... Excuse me!!! :D I am a explaning kinda girlie...
OK so on Friday, we went with the missionaries in Turku to eat at Pancho Villa. I couldn't eat a lot because I still had a dry cough and each french fry was making me cough SO much, so I just sat there, looking at the missionaries eating and talking with them. My voice was BACK and still is pretty good, by the way... I sounded kinda hoarse. Not a horse :D lol hahhah!
So. That was nice.
On Saturday we had the Gold and Green ball. The missionaries were the doormen. I didn't dance. Bad back, walker, (anxiety because there were so many people there...). I talked with a few friends, my bishop's wife brought me a piece of chocolate cake and a pepsi max! She is SO amazing and friendly. We took a few crazy pictures with the missionaries just before they went home.
On Sunday I sat with the missionaries at church (during sacrament meeting) and the meeting was good and a LOT more quiet than we have here in Tampere... After church I visited my friend who lives close by Turku and then I went home.
That's all folks! :)
