My Trip to the Arctic Circle

Today was so great! Me and six other friends woke up really early, rode our bikes to the train station, and went to the capital of Lapland, Rovaniemi!
A sign pointing in the direction of
major cities all over the world!
Line painted on the ground where the
"exact" latitude of the Arctic Circle is!















I was SOOOO excited to finally be at the Arctic Circle!

 But more than one life long dream was reached today, because....

 I MET THE REAL SANTA! and gave him a hug too! He is such a happy and magical person :D
me and Santa are homies
A picture of the real Santa with Nightwish!
They are an awesome Finnish rock band.

   







Today was full of many new experiences!

1st time eating reindeer meat!
It was such a good day! And this is only the beginning! I hope to be traveling above and beyond into the greatness that is Northern Finland very soon! But this was an excellent starting point :)
I am very tired after this exciting day so I must now say goodnight. Sooo... goodnight! :D

    I was definitely having a conversation with Michelle about how I couldn't wait to hear about the Arctic Circle but we didn't know when you were going. Then you posted this within 48 hours. Apparently we are all still linked in the brain even though you are a billion miles away. :)

    The mind connection is a bit delayed here. Sorry 'bout that. Hope the bugs get fixed soon so we'll no longer have this problem :D
