KiRuNa trip

Everyone was so stressed jus b4 our trip to kiruna.. everyone was rushing to finish their pharm care essay! But thanks goodness that ailian was able to finish her report.. but too sad for shinjeng who was not able to finish hers, n thus she had to stay back here in glasgow. Jus the day b4 departure, we went to change currency... c the money i have --->

Wat a whole big stack! It's kronor.. @ SEK @ swedish money

Day of departure -- 21st feb 6.30pm flight.. when we arrived there in Stavska airport, we need to migrate to another airport- Arlanda international airport, to wait for departure to kiruna on the next day..

When we arrived there in Arlanda, we had spent almost 260SEK, jus for bus n train.. oh, n we saw something familiar.. the thing behind, all the small houses.. yea, saw this from unpredictable's pic b4, i guess.. seems familiar, thus let's say cheeez n take pics together!

The airport -- everything is self service.. i was so gonna check in my big luggage -- Miss NenoLee ...

Was so cold n snowing outside in Arlanda airport @ Stockholm + preparing to go to kiruna... everyone wore so many layers of clothes, so do i.. c, i m so fat!!! gek ar... munkey is stil so thin!!!

The snow..... n me! The prawn said that i m like frog!! sob sob..

Yea.. finally arrive in kiruna! So nice la.. weather was good.. clear... n the snow.. i luv it to the max!!! snowy white... soft.. smooth.. crystal-like.. shiny snow! n it's deep..

Joined the Dog Sledge tour on the night we arrived in kiruna! Luckily it was a clear night! n we were able to c northern light!! We were so lucky!! Thank god! btw, the weather on the following day was not good n was too cloudy, no northern light seen!! me n neno wif the husky dogs! i like the white colour one but not this, but the tour guide asked us to take pic wif the leader instead of other dogs.. It was super cold.. is really unbelievable that i was in a jungle at -37degree celcius. Can't really believe that i ever experience such extreme weather! Dog sledge.. was quite fun though! but it was freezing cold.. my eye lashes were all frozen too...

Dinner time -- got some "fund" to have free pizzas for our dinner/supper! 4 pizzas for ard 220SEK.. we had the pizzas for 3 meals! Actually tot that there wil b free delivery when we ordered for >200SEK.. but who knows the delivery boy went back dy cos it's too late dy (we ordered at 11.30pm), so we had to go n collect it ourselves!

Snow.. more snow...

Snow... more snow.. plus houses

2nd day -- trip to ice hotel + snow mobile.. a pic taken in front of ice-hotel n ice-church (ice-church at the left hand side, ice-hotel right hand side)... c.. we were so so so short plus fat!


The absolut ice-bar! Jukkasjarvi..

Snow mobile was v hard to drive.. muscleache after driving that! was v scary though! Had a snow mobile accident which was super scary! Luckily it's not either 1 out of 5 of us who was being hit.. thanks goodness! Cos we went for snow mobile wif another 9 ppl, total of 14 ppl.. n we stopped by at ice-hotel.. when it was time to get off to another place for ice-fishing, the guide restarted the engine, n he was trying to heat it up, n press the accelerate "button", the snow mobile really accelerated in a super fast pace, n hit two girls... n a bunch of them were standing in front of the snow mobile, but still in a distance.. so unlucky that the 2 girls were being hit.. but luckily, there wasn't any broken bones or wat, jus that both of them felt painful at the back.. The petrol was frozen cos of the cold weather, that makes the snow mobile a bit abnormal dy.. n fly off without being able to be controlled.. the guide himself was also being pulled along wif the snow mobile... till a distance n it stopped.. the guide was super scared too i know, cos he hit ppl.. n if any thing happened to both the girls, then he wil b in big trouble too! Super scary! i was standing at the back of the snow mobile which the guide was starting it up, wif mun, n we saw the whole incident..." i tot wat happened to the guide, drove the snow mobile to hit ppl.. tot he cheesin or wat..." -- damn unforgettable la! Was later quite scared of driving snow mobile dy, shaky hands.... sharon was standing somewhere near the 2 girls..

Ok. Don talk abt the sadness dy! Still, ice-hotel is somewat small... not of wat i tot.. but it's special.. i almost break an ice-glass.. but luckily i still can hold it well!

3rd day -- skiing -- super fun! I love this activity the most! cos the skiing area is so so beautiful, n so refreshing.. n ski is really fun.. skiing down the slope, ski round the track! Neno fell down thousands times n now she is superb in standing back up! n i only fell down twice or thrice? - once is cos of the deep snow which makes me stucked inside the snow n i can't move... then another time is cos of the slope, where i can't stop myself, then i hv to fall down to one side... Later on have to walk back up the hills... so tiring.. but luckily the tutor was so nice, she helped us to carry our stick, n we jus carry our own board.. we followed the dog sledge track to walk back up the hill, n the track was jus full of shits n pees... u can c a big rocky ice yellowish in colour - yea, that's the pee...

Ok. Stop here. more photos to come!
