That's right "hotel california" , Quaker Oats porridge, handy for the California, just add hot water and stir and wait 2 minutes.
"Noeleen", if you cycle to Nordkapp then you get free entry!
Well today was a bit of a trial. Started off a bit drizzled and as I drove out of Alta it started sleeting. Not fun on a very windy road between the rock face and the river. Then a full blown blizzard with slush on the road and getting thicker. There was absolutely NO traffic. Up on the plateau it was even worse, blowing a gale with snowflakes as big as your thumb sticking to the one side of the Cali, such that you couldn't see out. Windscreen was OK. After about an hour I thought this is silly, I'll pull over and have a brew. As I did the sun came out and the snow stopped.
The slush disappeared and we were off. It's Sunday and the roads were very empty. Crossed into and out of Finland and didn't see anybody.
Plenty of reindeer about. Have to be careful if you see them near the road, just as likely to run in front of you as to run into the woods.the trouble is the group leader might already have crossed the road. They are very skittish and likely to run to catch up with the leader. Saw my first Elk as well. Unfortunately no photos as I couldn't stop. As tall as the Cali with his antlers.
Now in a nice campsite atGallivare, looking out over the river, that has lots of ice floes. Enjoying a can of Coke and a packet of crisps.
Sorted where I'm going tomorrow Lycksele, down the middle.
