First day on the skis

Waxing cross country skis can become alchemistic, especially with temperatures around zero degrees Celsius. So when following the weather in Lapland the last 10 days, it was sort of a mixed bag. Nice to see warmer temperatures than normal, but not easy for waxing skis.

Finally we are happy that just before arriving the weather took the right turn. Some fresh snow giving a good cover and temperatures going down a bit. Today already some sun and the forecast for the coming days is great.

After having done the necessary food shopping in the (very small) village nearby, we took our skis (waxing was perfect) and made a first round.
