Snow Castle
Finally arrived in Kemi. We missed are connecting bus for Rovaniemi to Kemi (we decided it must have come and gone in the 2 mins I didn't look out the window!!) so we wandered Rovaniemi again with our bags. I feel like I live there now as we've spent so much time there! Then we got the train later in the evening.
Having arrived in Kemi the only way to get to our hotel, which was 3km out of town, was by taxi so we rock up in a taxi to what looks like, well is, a roadside Motel. Of course Mike is off 'Where've you brought us now'.....bla..bla..bla.. (Of course anyone who knows him with know there were a few swear words thrown in too ) as he has done at every place we've got too, but it turned out ok. We have a lovely room that is the biggest out of all we've stayed in with our own private sauna!! The only downside is we are paying for taxis as there is no bus during the day either!
Been to visit and have a drink at the Snow Castle. Not really as spectaculer as it seems in the books!! And tomorrow we are off on an Arctic Icebreaker tour and dip in the Baltic Sea!!!!
So....until next time.....(if I don't die of hyperthermia before that!)
