Amazing adventure part 2

As we were heading back to the hotel from Norway Satu haven't given up on the northern lights yet. But whenever we saw the the northern lights it's either no where to stop the car or the trees are too tall to take photo. 
When we finally got the chance the northern lights were a bit blur coz of the cloud. However we had a chance to see all the beautiful stars upon us. There were so many of them. So beautiful. For the first time in my life I wished the time can stop. 

Anyway at this breath taking moment Satu's phone rang. It was our hotel. They wanted to know if she has returned us back to the hotel yet! I m not joking! We were famous Aussie couples in northern Finland!  But I wished Satu could say "nah we kept them as hostages to make sausages coz they can't pay the bill." Hahahhaha

We finally got back to the hotel at 1am. A 6 hours tour.... From northern lights to reindeers to sausages to crazy driving in the snow.

The next day we have to head back to Rovaniemi airport in the morning.  But before we went to the airport we went to visit the sled dogs at the dog farm. It's still part of the tour from yesterday!! So our adventure continued at this beautiful lake side dog farm. 


There were some beautiful horses there as well. You know when you see those red wooden horse at ikea? They always painted them with hair on the horses' neck? The horses in the sancadavian area are actually look like that!! I thought people were making things up!



The horses there can survie in extream cold weather. And same as the husky dogs. It's amazing to see these animals here. I wonder how they can cope with the cold. Satu told us yesterday there are bears around this area as will but they are all sleeping in winter. They slept so deep that the female bears didn't even know they gave birth! 




The husky dogs were so crazy! When they saw us they got all excited and jumping up and down! Most of the dogs were taller than me when they jumped so I really freaked out! They are all so smart and beautiful. The guy worked there explained to us the smartest dogs ( usually 2) will be the the leader of the pack and when the snow is deeper they will be leading the team to do all the running and huskysafari.  



It's so nice to talk to people who works there. What a nice job too. I mean what else do you want? Both sides of the house are around the lake, in summer you train the dog and in winter you get them out for husky safari. 

People in Inari are nice. They talked to you as if you were their friends. There was no commercial no fakeness in there. Everyone is so calm and polite. And because of all these people, they made you wanted to come back. We stayed there for 3 nights and we weren't bored at all. We thought oh a small towns like this we must find something else to do. It turned out we quite enjoyed our time there. You felt like  you can just look at the lake and watched the days went by. We went for a drive around the lake to take some photos. We went for a walk in the snow. Everything was so peaceful. If life can be this simple sometimes that would be nice.
