Bike Trip to the Bunker Museum

Today we did a bike trip to the bunker museum in Joensuu. It's about 6km from the university, this makes ~23 kilometers in a whole (Including the way from Latonlakatu to the university and all back). Everyone at home who knows me, know that i'm not a biker, but even i did it. Ok, i can't sit any more and i'm done, but the trip was worth all the "pain".

The weather was perfect and a lot of people joined the group. I guess we were about 20 students and tutors/teachers. The nature here is really fantastic and on the bike you have the time to enjoy it all.

Our trip went to the Bunker Museum on the western side of Joensuu. It was part of the Finnish defense line in 1940/44 during the second World War. Fortunately there was never a reason to use it, because the Russian never attacked Finland at this time. (not this "far" inside of Finland)

So we walked through all the bunkers and get some history review from our guide. Afterwards we were grilling some sausages on the fireplace and enjoyed the weather. After that we were heading home. I took a lot of photos from this day, so feel free to have a look at them in my gallery.

Tonight there is a party at Katis place. I will make my report tomorrow, so see ya then.
