After swimming

I had never swam in river Muonio before.

I thought the water would be chilling, but eventually it was soft and fresh and pleasantly cooling.

The most surprising thing was the flow. It's very strong and fast and even if you were an excellent swimmer, the flow grabs you in a blink, and you can't but float wherever the flow wants to take you.

I personally wasn't in real danger, but the flow made the experience much more exciting than I thought it would be.. Luckily I didn't even try to go farther than two meters away from the shore, so I could easier fight my way back! :P

The river been spoken of, is pictured in the background.

I love it.
