SUNDAY FOREST EXPERIENCE
Last Sunday my friends and I went to the forest for first time in my live. We met at twelve o´clock in front of the university and walked from there to the forest, our aim was reach the lean-to shelter Lepakkolaavu.
This was the view of our first stop, amazing isn´t it? The trees were cover of snow, (it had been snowing the whole weekend) and the lake was frozen, but it was not completely frozen because you couldn´t walk on it. In our first stop the guide gave as a map of the forest and we had to find where we were. It was impossible even though we had a clue, we were located close to a lake .
So the guide gave up and help us with the map. Once we knew which way we had to go, we picked our bags and start walking through the forest.
In our second stop the guide explain us the different types of flora and fauna that can be found in a Finnish forest. We couldn´t see much because of the snow, but anyway the forest was very pinteresque. There was some areas of the forest where it was difficult to walk if you were not wearing adequate boots, more than one of us fell down, the snow can be slippery too. After a long walk we finally reach our destination. Our guide explain us how to make a fire, the best way to make it is placing the woods in cross useful tip: if the wood is wet, you won´t be able to make any fire, so check first how the weather will look like before go to the forest. After make the fire we were ready to make pancakes!!! the first pancakes were a bit burn, there was a french girl in our group that show us the right technique, we learnt fast how to make good pancakes and we enjoyed a lot .
