On Thursday we flew out to Lapland (a fantastic Christmas present from Marks mum, dad and gran), landing at Enontekio on the last day before it closed for the winter, the hold door froze on the plane which added to the artic circle feeling though for them it was mild and wet for the time of year (spot a theme there then!!)
Quick transfer at we were in our log cabin at Davvi Lodge and out for a stroll around town. Compulsory photo of a foot in two countries (Sweden and Finland) and a visit to the most northerly church in Sweden. The next day we were of to drive huskies, no doubt they were the trekking ponies of the dog world but they were good fun and I'd like to drive a team again. Our huskies were keen and much speedier than the teams in front so unfortunately we were on the brakes a lot, must be disapointing for them. Later that night we took some snowmobiles on a hoon around the woods, seemed a lot faster when Mark was driving but fair dues Mark was a much better passenger on them than he was on the huskies!!
In between we did a lot of sledging, don't you think we look stylish?!
