Finland pictures in March driving from the Santa
Clause Village back home.
Taken on our trip to Lapland, these pictures in march start where we begin driving down south. From where Santa is at the
Santa Clause village. And it looks like this.
We are journeying by car from Rovaniemi, Lapland where we
visited Santa
Clause at the Santa Clause Village, now on our way south to Tampere.
See the more detailed trip to Lapland here.
The Santa Clause Village toy
factory museum.
Perhaps
LEGO made this Lego Santa Clause for his truly?
Inside Santa's wooden toy store.
A few photos while driving from
Rovaniemi to Kuusamo.
It is the beginning of March in Finland. Snow covers all of Finland. To
make driving safer, automobiles are
equipped with studded 'spiked tires',
since the roads are usually caked with snow and ice.
Pictures in March -White, grey, hazey misty blue at times, lot's of
snow.
There is a snow storm blowing, but I manage to find a break in the sky,
stop the car and get out in time to get this shot across a lake at a
rest-stop between Posio and Kuusamo.
The hazey sky clouds our view across the lake.
Panning 180
degrees, across the street is this view.
After an hours drive we take a rest and stop to shop for reindeer
products, or any sorts of little gift item for our house sitters.
Reindeer stuff everywhere in all shapes and sizes. Canned, pickled,
minced, fresh.
Canned Reindeer bottom left -- Right: Handmade wooden carved cups,
