⑨ The 1st Aurora Experience


After lunch, I went on a 2 hour-drive, having a rest for my business on the way, and got to Ylläs.





I made it to the lodge "Ylläs-Kaltio,"which I'd stay for 4 nights.
It was well-built with the calm contryside mood and elegance.

 

I was so happy to have a privete sauna in my room!!



After taking a rest in my room, I headed for "Snow Fun Safaris,"
which is across from the lodge, to rent the winter wear.
I could book some local tours there too.



The winter wear I rented:
It kept me dry and warm for sure!!


After dinner, I headed for Äkäslompolo lake about 10 minutes walking
from the lodge and waited for Aurora/Northern Lights there.
The moon and starry sky were picture-perfect


After a while, They appeared, got bigger and brighter,
and changed itself into many kinds of shapes.
Because of my 1st experience in this trip, I was so happy
and remembered the ones that I saw in Alaska 14 years ago.

After they danced in the sky, they got weaker and disappeard.
I kept waiting for them to appear again but they didn't.
So I got back to the lodge, warmed myself in the sauna, and drank with a sour
which I'd got in Tampere, celebrating the 1st Aurora/Northern Lights. Cheers!!!

It tasted very good!! I've never drunk dericious sour like this in my life even in Japan.
Scince I was thirsty after taking a sauna, I emptied it right away without a break.



I fell asleep and went into my dream with the exitement!! Good Night!!
