Expedition

This expedition is the second one in the series of two hashpoints scored today. First one.

That's quite a big snowman.

Before the next hashpoint we crossed the Arctic Circle, where Pastori constructed a ”small” snowman. The hashpoint was about 8 km north of the Arctic Circle. I have to say that it was very easy. Only 50 meters from the road and barely snow at all. There we acquired accuracy of about 3 meters. The Wife found from the hummocks some lingonberries that had been on the freezer of the nature whole winter. Very good, yum yum. Our journey towards north continued still for a few hours peacefully: mountain sceneries, reindeers and the quiet whisper of The Wife's knitting work.

Yet another hashpoint scored.

After arriving to our destination and having sauna it was time to go to sleep, eagerly waiting coming week's activities and possible new hashpoints.
