Prawda czy fałsz?
Hi Mike!
I’ve just had the most fantastic experience of my life. We went to Lapland! It was a school trip (one week instead of school) and it was fantastic. We went reindeer spotting with a Sami guide. He took us into the tundra where we walked for ages in the freezing cold, but suddenly, in the middle of all the empty snow, we saw a huge herd of reindeer.
We visited a Sami camp too. We saw people making knives and leather clothes and houses – all from reindeer. Their houses seemed really warm and comfortable. We also went on a sled ride with husky dogs – with a driver. We went really fast and it was so exciting, and guess what – we found Father Christmas. He was hiding behind a tree (only joking!).
One afternoon we drove north and stayed there deep in the Arctic Circle. We didn’t experience the midnight sun – that only happens in summer – but we saw the most amazing Northern Lights. They were fantastic, absolutely stunning. You see so many colours dancing around the sky.
But I think the best thing was we stayed in an ICE hotel. Can you believe it … a hotel made just of ice? You sleep on ice beds, you sit on ice chairs … OK, with reindeer skins on top, and don’t worry – the hotel’s a nice, warm –5C! The hotel’s in a place called Jukkasjarvi. It’s very small and quiet with just a museum and a restaurant. But the museum’s really interesting. It has an exhibition about the Sami way of life.
This was absolutely the best trip I’ve ever been on. Go there too – you really must.
Love
Hannah
