Great pictures.
I was in Sweden in 1996 and one of our stops was Riksgransen. It was first week in June and there was still snow 3-4 feet deep and the lake near the ski lodge was frozen over. I guess its the whole thing about being above the Artic circle. There was enough sun light at 2am to see without a light.
After several days, we took a train ride west and were dropped in the middle of nowhere. We hiked several miles down the mountain to the fjord. We took a boat ride out to Narvik. Had a great time in this city on the water.
I hope to someday visit Norway and Sweden again with my wife. I was in several cities that are twice the age of America. Enjoyed the history of that part of the world.
