25-07-2017 Bong & His Third Summer in the North (Norway - Sweden - Finland)

Last Friday,

we started our journey to the north 'Day 1'!

This time we drove through the boring

Sweden and Finland again,

because we wanted to avoid all the traffic

and roadworks...

We stopped by at Östersund

to buy some alcohol and food.

And we were so impressed with

how nice the shopping area is!

After 13 hours,

1000 KM of driving,

Arne was totally exhausted!

For our day 1,

we had our overnight at Blattnicksele Camping.

Just like other camping sites in Sweden,

we get a small cabin room,

with 2 beds,

a small fridge

and cooking utensils. 

And not to forget

the nice scenery around the whole camping site. 

The shared toilet and shower

are okay,

but the kitchen is too 'simple' I would say...

We slept for only 4 hours,

and Arne was already ready to continue the journey~

It was only less than 5 degrees

in some places that we drove by.

Some places were covered with a dense bank of fog

that we couldn't even see the road clearly~

Along the way, 

we saw a number of reindeer 

and all of them were alone,

which is strange...

We stopped at Karesuvanto

to fill up diesel...

then at Kilpis

for more food shopping...

and lunch!

We had lunch buffet

at this Kilpis Restaurant (Ravintola Kilpis)...

4-5 warm dishes,

salads,

breads and desserts...

and we paid 15 euro for each person.

While we were dining,

we had a company walking by 

to show us more of the wild life in north Scandinavian. 

After Kilpis,

we were welcomed

by the snowy mountains in north Norway!

After a total of

21 hours, 

1800 KM driving,

we finally reached our destination,

Mortenhals!

To be continued...
