Back to NYC last night, safely.
Sweden was incredible. I arrived in the middle of a cold snap: -29 C (- 21 F) at the airport, and a full ten degrees colder out at Jukkasjarvi. The thing about spending any amount of time outside in temperatures that cold is that there is no room for anything but peace. Bliss, even.
Polarnight means that the sun set on December 12th and was not due to rise again until December 31st. It wasn't completely dark, but pink-ish between 10 and about noon, then dusk-like between noon and 1:00 pm, and then dark again by about 1:30 pm. More photos will follow, but here's a quick look at the lunch hour light.
