Kungsleden Day 7


We awoke on day 7 to overcast skies, but it looked sunny where we were headed. We quickly hiked down below the tree line again and into the sun! You could see the clouds still up in the mountains, but down out of the mountains it was sunny and great. It was also kind of boring as we hiked along a lake but couldn't see it at all because of all of the trees, and the past few days were absolutely gorgeous. We didn't go that far and stopped about 2 miles from Nikkaluokta - where we catch our bus back to Kiruna. We found a great camp spot near a river so we sat down by the river for a bit putting our feet in once and a while (the water was freezing cold), and playing cards until it was time for bed. I woke in the middle of the night and you could see the moon and it was bright, but it was still light out like the sun had just gone down. It is still odd that it didn't really get dark dark. Here are the photos from this days hike:




Break time




The lamest meditation spot - the last photo is the view from the meditation spot. You could only see those lame rocks, and there is a lake behind them











The moon late at night over the river we camped by - see how bright it was out

Colmar, France Part 2 - All the museums!

So when we were wandering around Colmar and spying on all the things we saw a sign that we happened to be in Colmar on a free night at the museum! So most of the museums in town were free from 7pm-11pm/midnight (depending on the museum). So we of course had to go check them out! There were only four in town so we were able to go to all of them, though by the end we were so tired and our feet were so sore from a long day of exploring and long night of museums.  First up was the Museum Bartholdi, but I didn't take any photos in there (I wasn't sure I was allowed and it was super busy, so many people!). It was super tiny, but interesting. There were a lot of models of ideas he had for different monuments and then what he actually ended up using. The one room was just ideas and designs for the Statue of Liberty which was cool. There wasn't a lot there, but what there was I enjoyed.  Then it was over to the Natural History and Ethnology Museum Cool bugs

San Francisco Part 1

  Oh San Francisco. What a wonderful time I had there. It was absolutely beautiful the entire time. Sunny, warm, gorgeous. Plus getting to spend a few days with Jacalen and Patricia = So much fun! We definitely need to do more girls trips! This will be a mostly picture post   I arrived late afternoon and the bus dropped me off near Fishermans Wharf and I walked over to where we were staying. Oh, it was gorgeous outside, but with my bags and such I was a bit warm. Not expecting that in February! Patricia arrived a bit after I did and we had the evening to ourselves to do whatever we wanted! It was so nice out and we were staying in the Marina District so it was just a short walk down to the water. Beautiful!   After wandering along the waterfront for a bit it was time for some dinner! We happened to find the Plant Cafe and I got a plant burger with fries and a salad. Really tasty! Afterwards we went to get a drink and noticed the bar had trivia on Tue
