Ho ho ho Merry Christmas
We flew back on the 23rd of December to celebrate christmas with our families.
First of was my family. We had decided to celebrate in a small hotel in Bäcka near Orsa in Dalarna. Upon arriving at Arlanda we encountered some logistic problems. The car was too small and too packed. We couldn’t fit in. It was midnight the day before christmas and Arlanda was deserted. We managed to find a car rental and rented a car 10 min before they closed.
We then drove for 5 hours up to Dalarna. Arrived at 05.30 quite exhausted. When we awoke the world was transformed and the landscape was glittering with snow and frost. It was – 23 Celsius and lots of snow. We couldn’t have hoped for a better christmas eve. On the 25th we took the train to Västerås for Julias family. After some train delays and extra busses we arrived in Västerås. We celebrated with Julias family and returned to Stockholm on the 26th.
