Lunch at Frodo's
Leaving the jewellery shop, we were met with almost tropical temperatures, 14 degrees! We had to return to Karasjok to take our shortcut through Finland.
A nomadic celebration
The greatest attraction in Kautokeino is probably the jewellery shop Juhls Galleri, which is as we discovered, so much more than a jewellery shop. As we were browsing arround this magnifficent building, with its various quirky rooms, a lady came up to us and wondered if we'd like her to show us around. Turned out she was the daughter of the couple, Juhl, who started the place.
Smelling across the tundra
Waking up this morning was easy...it was so cold that jumping out of bed a putting more cothes on was the only viable option. Still it coud have been worse, at least our little heater worked. Over in Morten and Berit's cabin, their heater did not work at all and they barely slept at all. Apparently, Berit woke up at 6 am and spent the morning re-packing their suitcase in a futile attempt at keeping warm.
