<\/figure>\n\n\n\nOur way led us back to Finland (which is in EE time zone). Despite Europe without border, Finish authorities were checking us thanks to Corona which is ruling the world in last 2 years. Since we were ready with all documents and green passes, there was no issue at all. Officials were very nice, and it seemed that they were happy to finally test their mobile application for checking EU green pass validity. They could hardly believe that also all children above 12 have been vaccinated and proudly told us that also he got the first shot of mRNA vaccination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Around lunch time we stopped at a place where melting of ice left interesting traces. To me it looked as if somebody has dropped off some giant piece of Swiss cheese made of stone in the middle of the flat lands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Highlight of the day was crossing arctic circle line, which tells us that we are very fast nearing our most northern point of our travel.

We found it only few 100 meters bellow the top of the hill, where \u201cmosquito situation\u201d was bearable and did not endanger our night rest. Then came then next surprise\u2026 We found out that sun will not set today at all. Since we moved so much north, sunset has moved past midnight (0:10 EE time zone) and so we could observe midnight sun, which went bellow horizon for just a bit longer than 1 hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sunrise 3:47 This was the day when we moved north for quite a bit. Starting from Sweden (which is in CET time zone) we firstly visited rapids on river Torne \u00e4lf and learned how the locals were (and partially still are) fishing white fish with just a fish net on a long stick.
