Blog 3 - The first snows...and reindeer!


Now back on the road and stopped for the night at Stromsund. Saw my first snow capped mountains across the Norwegian border today but we are still travelling up through Sweden-1,300 miles since leaving home..... It is still warm(ish), dry and sunny although as I write this the black clouds are rolling in.




Saturday 31 May

Oh damned, it's raining! Sitting in a campsite which finally has decent wifi (although struggling to put up photos) about 300 miles short of Kiruna. Drove all day again, slowing only to let reindeer cross the road and for the odd leg stretch! Hardly any traffic on the roads, which are excellent, and definitely no Brits to be seen anywhere. Wave to the occasional passing campervan, but for some reason they all seem to be going in the opposite direct to us. Um wonder why?




Been doing some reading up on what's ahead, and a big plus has got to be a visit to the Eiderdown Museum!!! more on that to follow.....Still, we are enjoying it all so far, hope the sun comes back.
