These were our last days in Lapland. We first visited Karajosk, which is Sami Norway's capital. Here you can find the Sami parliament, in the shape of a Sami tent.

From there we drove to the beginning and end of our journey: Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland. We visited the Santa Claus Village, where you can meet Father Christmas all year round.

Rovaniemi has the most northerly McDonalds in the world, so we decided to taste some of the burgers over there ;-)

The last thing we did was visiting the Arktikum. This complex contains both the Provincial museum of Lapland as the Artic Centre. From there we went to the airport.
