The famous reindeer ride - for me personally it was not very exciting but it was a tick off one item in the bucket list. You sit on the sledge driven by a reindeer which is controlled by a official driver in another sledge in the front and go around the marked track for about 10 minutes. So all of us had taken a ride!!!

Next item was crossing the artic circle yes you can officially cross into the artic circle here in Santa claus village What is the Arctic Circle? The Arctic Circle is the latitude of the globe that runs north of the Equator of 66 ° 33′45.9 ″. It is the southernmost latitude, where the sun stays 24 hours above or below the horizon - these phenomena are called the midnight sun in summer and the c amel in the winter. The Arctic region begins with the Arctic Circle, and within its borders there are several cities larger than Rovaniemi, but none of them are in the immediate vicinity of the Arctic Circle In Rovaniemi, the Arctic Circle passes eight kilometers north of downtown Santa Claus Village, where it is clearly marked.

Wednesday the 13th at Lapland - Rovaniemi after a good breakfast started out to Santa Claus Village - A day filled with fun and activities. First was to visit Santa Claus and take photos with him. Every body was curious to know his age. It was exciting to see the real (!!!) Santa Claus . But only the official photographer is allowed to take the photos. And of course it costs you a lot if euros.
