Brrrr! Very rustic. The inside of the meeting hall looks warm and welcoming, though.

The weather did get better, especially on the last day. But they do have very short summers up there.

Re: Kiruna in the north of Sweden
Beautiful photos, thanks for sharing them! Somehow, they remind me a bit of northern Wisconsin.
Working on a major fan fic project. Two-thirds done. Hope to put it up in the not TOO distant future.
