We've been up here at the Arctic Circle (Rovaniemi, Finland) for the weekend and have really enjoyed it. We spent most of the day visiting Santa Claus (and buying his stuff. cough, cough.) Time can really sneak up on you here during the "white nights" of summer. It's impossible to have any sense of time when the sun is always up and it's always light outside.
A few fun things: Ammon loves salmon. He will shovel in a whole steak and yell for more. Alan bought some fresh-caught fried whitefish fingerlings for everyone to try this morning. All of the fish-haters booed and made snide remarks, while Vilate kept asking for "one more." She ate the whole lot of them, heads and all. It was impressive!
Sweden tomorrow . . .
