Inari

Still a few pictures from my last trip in Lapland during end May. Even Inari was covered in snow again for a few days. Winter is not giving up easily and spring time is struggeling to get started in the North of Finland

Traditional Lapland houses

In Lapland you can still find those traditional houses with grass on the roof.  The wooden walls have such a great structure, dried by the sun and the cold over the years.

Low water level

This doesn't look like Finland at all... The picture was taken in Lapland during May. The water level
in the lakes and rivers was extremely low, normally there should be much water after the melting of the snow. This year the snow just evaporated into the air. The low water level gave interesting shaped island in different colours.

Lapland



 Typical view of a river stream in Lapland. Also the reindeers you can't miss on a visit in the North.

White reindeer calf

This white reindeer calf we saw just before Inari, North Lapland. Normally young reindeers don't have this colour, they are more grey. When I went closer to take some pics, the calf was very curious what I was doing.
