Jääkieko peli jäähallissa

Tonight, I went to the local ice rink (jäähalli) to watch a hockey game (jääkieko), with my friends Albert and Antton. I had a great time. Finnish hockey is much cleaner than American hockey: no fights, rarely a penalty. A lot of scoring though: the home team (in orange) won 13-4. Some pictures: 
I took some videos, including a goal, but alas, no videos on Blogger. Oh well. Contact me if you want to see them, though I'm not sure if I'll be able to send them all, as one is a bit lengthy. 

Afterwords, I rode my bike home. In the dark. With mist. Let me put it in perspective:

When I go to school, and I'm full of energy, it takes me 15 minutes to travel the 6km. After school, when I'm tired, 30 minutes. Tonight, when I was filled with adrenaline and irrational fear- same route, 10 minutes at the most. I wouldn't doubt 7 minutes. I pedaled so fast that my shoe fell off at one point, I wish I were kidding. Oh well, lesson learned. The sun goes down by ten apparently. I'll call for a ride next time.
