Our many first times


Our 5 first times in the Finland cum Norway trip.


First time #1: We were at the Santa Claus' Village in Rovaniemi, Finland. I would like to emphazise that this is the REAL santa claus village! If you want to send a postcard to the santa claus, you just have to address the postcard to Finland (something like
"To Santa Claus in Finland") and the postcard will be sent to this village directly. So, isn't it real?
First time #2: We saw herds of wild reindeers on the road. Sorry to say that we tasted the yummy reindeer kebab too!
First time #3: The Northern Light! My buddy said this is something must see before he dies.
First time #4: We reached the northernmost point of Europe, the North Cape. The sea is the Arctic Sea!!!
First time #5: We drove 2964km in 4 days from Tampere, the southern part of Finland, to the northernmost part of Norway. First experience with the left-hand drive and the GPS ( the small screen above the air-conditioner. GPS is so cooool! kekekeke.
Driver #1, Swee Ching and our sole navigator, Javier. Driver #2 is ME!
