The Waaijer spend a white Christmas in Lapland!
We stayed at the Christmas Village near Rovaniemi and then drove up north to Ivalo
The highlights of the video are:
- Spending time in the Christmas village; feeding raindeers, going on a snowmobile and of course visiting Santa!
- Seeing the northern lights at 6pm near the village!
- Driving through magnificent forests and landscapes that just seem out of this world
- Visiting Riisitunturi national park and Korouoma Frozen Waterfal
- Having dinner in an Ice Restaurant (OK that wasn't really a highlight, too cold!)
- Playing in the snow; sledding, sliding off of slopes on tubes and snowball fights!
- Ice fishing in Ivalo in -25º and then eating reindeer sausages over the bonfire
- Riding a sled with huskies in front through a beautiful forest and lake. This was THE highlight of the trip
- Doing some cross-country skiing in Saariselkä Ski Resort and having a great lunch at the top of the mountain
- Staying in a beautiful AirBnB in Ivalo near a lake - so peaceful.
