Midnight Sun
This is as dark as it gets
Short one today.
Check-out is quite intensive here… they give you a list of thins you have to do in your room before you leave (cleaning-wise) otherwise you risk a $40 fine. Lovely.
I headed down towards the lake today - that was lovely. There’s a huge delta which is a bird sanctuary, so it’s off limits, but it was nice to look down into it. I found another reading perch near the river and spent a good hour up there.
I then headed further up the mountain into the bush… yeah, not as much of a fan. I don’t like the sounds of rustling in the bushes - they have lynx, bears and wolverines out here haha. Skills. I know they don’t come near people, but still, slightly paranoid haha.
Thankfully, the largest wild animal I saw was a chipmunk. And some huge bird. That I can deal with.
Back near the cabins there was a beautiful Samoyed - awww. I miss my Balou! And my Homer. Aw.
ANYWAY. I headed off to the recreation of a Sami Camp (Aboriginal people from Northern Scandinavia) which was pretty cool. I had to laugh when I


Samoyed
He looks so smug. Puff-ball.
got to their teepee though… it had a huge tarp on it from the company: “tentipi” … wow, how authentic!! Haha. Everything else was good though.
My train comes in a couple hours - I’m headed down to Malmo on the overnight train, via Stockholm.
