So woke up to our last morningin our lovely little chalet in the most amazing Abisko National Park. Could have quite happily stayed for SO much longer and played in the snow forever!
Our last morning was jam packed before we left for the train home with snow show walking. Once dropped at the tourist information we were kitted out with our very sexy snow shoes and then show the path up to the cable car. Now when i say cable car i am absolutely certain it does not convey the sheeeeeeer size of this beast! It was literally ALL the way up the mountain side! The view from it being absolutely AMAZING from. Once at the top we hopped of the cars and headed up the peak of the mountain. Unfortunately we ran out of time and didn't quite make it to the top before we had to head back down. back at the cable car we saw people beginning to come up to ski down, and o my seriously i don't know HOW these people have the non fear to just launch tehmselves over the edge and ski down - UNBELIEVABLE!
The journey down was a little more hair-raising than the journey up as i realised just HOW high up we really were! Especially at one point when we were dangling out over a snow ledge! But we reached the bottom and so sadly had to trudge back to the tourist info to collect our bags and head for the train :'( A very quick snow ball fight before the train and then on we piled, back into our cabins as the train departed at 12:35 for the mammouth expedition home. There was no party cabin this time around due to sheer exhaustion of everyone after possibly one of the funnest, adventure weeks ever!!
Sadly enough we arrived in Lund the next day around 3ish and unfortunaltey stepped of the train back into reality :'( No more snow.
An aamaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing trip!
The End.
