Laura's Life in Sweden: Fun Weekend

Friday night was date night... so we hopped on our bikes in the freezing cold and snow and rode downtown. We got a glass of wine at a nice bar next to the movie theater and then went and saw Harry Potter. It was really crowded.... and pretty much everyone was my age or older which was kind of surprising. The movie was really good, but of course it was super long. After the movie we rode home as fast as we could to stay warm!

Saturday night was girls night! My friend Therese invited me to come along for girls night with her friends. We all met at Anna's apartment and played some games (Anna's apartment was a two mile bike ride from my apartment... foreigner was nice enough to ride with me so I didn't have to go alone in the dark.) After Anna's we went to a small party at another apartment even farther away! Then we rode our bikes to a bar that was closer to my apartment to go dancing! It was a ton of fun, the theme at the bar that night was "zoo animals" so it was decorated like a jungle and they had a face painter! We all got our faces painted and danced like crazy. It was nice to have a night out with girls! When we were ready to go (at 3am!) Foreigner was nice enough to meet me at the bar so I didn't have to ride home alone... and after all those drinks I'm not sure I could have! Overall it was a great night and with all of the bike riding and dancing it was quite a workout!
