The Ice Hotel

We left the house at 6:00am and headed for Jukkasjärvi, a small village in Northern Lapland, Sweden that builds an entire hotel out of ice every winter! It’s called the Ice Hotel.

It is at a beautiful location beside the River Torne. About 200 kilometers above the Arctic Circle. We made several stops at other interesting places, like the worlds largest wool mitten, and a huge sundial, and a snowed in paddle boat. It was a 12 hour day, but well worth the drive.
