Lapland...the land of make believe.

There are no words in the English Dictionary that can describe the beauty of this enchanting part of Finland, and until you experience it for yourself you will never know.

We stayed in Rovaniemi, just inside the Arctic Circle, and at -20 degrees it made it even more breath-taking (literally)!

The whole landscape looked like it had been sprinkled with magical pixie dust...just for us!

Fun-filled days were spent on reindeer and husky rides, snowball fighting with the elves (they are Olympic champions), sledging and snowmobiling.

Quieter times of Lappish tales around a campfire drinking hot berry juice, a visit to Father Christmas and sometimes just standing still for a minute and listening…to nothing but the sound of the snowflakes falling.

It was like walking through the wardrobe into Narnia...and just for those few, short, snow-filled days I was 7 years old again and I believed.
