icebar


on friday night, my sister and i went to this icebar. a bar made of ice. well, they don't name it icebar for nothing. we thought it will be big and crowded. the waiter lead us the way, gave us coats and gloves, it's supposed to be -5C inside. then he opened the door. actually there are 2 doors. we have to open them one by one. to prevent the ice from melting i guess. when we opened the second door and entered this so-called icebar, we are stunned. it is so small and we are alone! maybe they got this great idea to make an ice bar when they saw this abandoned freezer. "hey, why don't we make this freezer into an ice bar. we'll charge 10 e per person. who knows, maybe some stupid tourists will be interested. after all it's finland. you have to experience the winter even in fall. isn't that a great idea?" then one night, these 2 stupid and naive tourists enter the ICEBAR and got the surprise! ;D but it's quite an interesting experience. in fact, i drank my first vodka there. actually i'm against alcohol. but that's the only occasion that deserved to be celebrated with vodka. besides it's -5C inside. so a little alcohol won't hurt. we stayed there for about 10 minutes, laughing and thinking how ridiculous it was. but we were enjoying every minute of it. we would have stayed longer, but the waitress was freezing and looking at us with bizarre look. we didn't want to torture her any longer. besides we're freezing to death. after taking some pictures and finishing our tasty vodka, we went out and felt content. and they said, "yup, we got ourselves a next victim."
