A trip to the Cold North

[kwchang]

...what about mozzies? Don't want to catch Denggi, Zeka or Malaria in the process.

Aedes (dengue and zika) mosquitoes are active only during dawn and dusk - so avoid those times (around 7-8 am/pm). You should be safe if you need darkness for the milkyway - too bright at dawn or dusk

At times like this, Insect Repellent come in handy

[Firefly]

the nearest place to catch the milky is actually in telok gong. mozzzies? got repellant and coil ma. much better than the sandflies at sekinchan!

Will you organize one?

Continuing where I left off after the distraction to the Aurora lights and it's discussion..

We had an overnight train from Rovaniemi to Helsinki.

A ferris wheel


But this wheel have 2 special cabins. Shown here is a Sauna. There is another that serves champagne
