Last sled to Dawson

Sadly, our plans to check out the Wood Hotel in Skellefteå got covered in deep snow turning into rain when a winter storm engulfed the coast of Västerbotten just as we were moving houses. At one point, we were 10 centimetres from hitting a lamp post with our rental moving truck as its wheels slipped in the slush but, magically, we managed to move everything and starting to get organized at Historiegränd. Beyond the truck, we also got to drive around in a Peugeot 2008 GT, quite grateful that it was not the Toyota Starlet.

After four hours of sleep, Anna and I are now on the first morning train up to Kiruna to celebrate New Year’s with the kids. In three days, we will all take the train back to Umeå and put up the last books and lamps.
