Kiruna to Pello

This morning we caught a city bus to the bus stop in the old part of Kiruna. We were right across from the church that they are in the process of moving to New Kiruna. The city bus ride was good because we got to see many of the homes in the new town.

About 1:30 we boarded the bus to Pajala. It was a nice drive. The countryside reminded me of Northern Wisconsin or Minnesota. At one point we saw a reindeer cross in front of the bus.We are definitely in Lapland.

When we arrived in Pajala we were were met by Roger and Gayle’s friends and the lady from the house we are staying at in Pello. They drove us to the house.

After dinner we walked down to the river. The other side of the river is Finland.
