274/6373 - Border - sunny - Parking at the National Park
Continues from "North Cape 2004" Part Two
32/6099 - 125 Konningsvag - sunny - Parking at the harbor After unloading and loading water at the Shell gas station, the first one when entering Konningsvag, stocking up on groceries at a supermarket, we saw our friends from Ivrea again, who had stopped to fish in this town, happy because they had filled their fridge with fish We drive through the tunnel again at 491 nok After the steep but very beautiful road of North Cape, we get back on the E6 which becomes the 92, narrow with a bumpy surface, it gets worse after the border, let's hope for the best tomorrow
88/6461 - 80 Inari - sunny - Visit to the Sami Museum A peaceful night in a parking lot of a national park. As soon as we arrived we were attacked by a swarm of gnats and mosquitoes, we immediately shut ourselves inside the camper and after a thorough disinfestation we were back at peace. The 92 is still bad with bumps and dips until the E75 junction, then it becomes nice, smooth and fast at 100 an hour which I hadn't done in a long time.
106/6567 - 74 Tankavaara - sunny - Visit to the Gold Museum This museum isn't marked in tourist guides, but it's very beautiful and interesting, besides the gold prospectors of the area, there are photos and original equipment, with reconstructions of environments from all over the world, related to gold prospecting We're tired and want to rest, we've decided on a campsite, tomorrow big cleaning, the camper needs it, the storage compartment needs to be tidied up, many containers can be thrown away to make space.
120/6788 - Arctic Circle (Santa Claus) - overcast Big disappointment, it's a souvenir supermarket, Japanese and otherwise, queuing at Santa Claus to take a photo, the line marking the parallel overcrowded with people taking the ritual photo. 6/6794 - 78 Rovaniemi - sunny - Parking € 1.00 Very modern little town, nothing special 138/6932 - Haparanda - border with Sweden
