Hey there! It's been a while, but I always come back with new photos for you. This time a short relation from my last trip to Artctic Circle. My family decided to finally realize the long planned visit to St.Claus house and get to feel a little bit of Chrismas spirit. I decited to go with them, nevermind the age... The photo report is short, as the weather in Finland is not in favour of photogrphers - during whole day there were only something about 4 hours of light. And yes, it was cold. Very, very cold. Still, I highly recommend you to go there and visit Lapland in the Chrismas season - you can really feel the spirit there.
