Born again carnivore

Saturday, July 3rd
Today we woke up early to watch the Germany-Argentina world cup game. The five of us went to a German cafe to watch the game and root for Germany. If you watched the game, you'll know that Germany won 4-0. As soon as they won all the German fans, instead of jumping up and down and cheering, got up grabbed their nation's flag and marched the streets. After the game, we went for lunch. We went to a Dutch restaurant and I tried something for the first time ever - Dutch meatball sandwich. It was amazing! Oh yeah...btw...I've eaten steak, meat, pork, and alpaca since I've been here and I haven't eaten any of those for about 20 years. The alpaca actually tasted pretty good. The steak...not so much. 
After lunch Sophia, Ville and I walked around town and went to a cemetary at the edge of the city. The cemetary was like no other I've ever seen before. It had huge moseliems, tombs and "flats" for the deceased. It was tragically beautiful. After meandering around the cemetary, we headed back into town and the five of us had dinner together. Dinner turned into cocktails and cocktails turned into dancing the night away.
