HUSKYFARM

Today we had to clean sauna and enjoy the sunny day. Well, we tried to take the second command very seriously and huskyfarm visit was perfect for that. It was fun to see and play with the husky puppies. They where so energetic and just wanted to drag and chew our clothing.

We also met a friendly huskyfarm volunteer Batrisha who told us lots of interestings stories about the dogs and her life in Lapland. Because of her, we also had a great opportunity to take a part from sled-dog training and dog's poop cleaning.

All of the sudden all dogs start howling. It was so loud that we could not even hear our own thoughts. Later they explain us, it was because of the leader dog. When he makes the sound all the other dogs follow him and when he stops, everbody will as well. Why so, nobody knows. Today's biggest surprise was the husky's eye color. We have always thought they have only bright blue eyes, but we learned that they can be brown or green together as well.

In the evening we went out and enjoyed Northern Lights together with a hot tea and sweet cookies. The beauty of the sky made us realize how lucky we are to be here and enjoy this so peaceful Nordic land.
