Day 20: Visiting Santa in Rovaniemi

Because of an awful weather (rain showers in half an hour intervals), we decided to change the plan and start the trek a day later than planned and we visited Santa Claus in his commercial village on the Arctic Circle in Rovaniemi instead. Santa himself really is a funny man. He speaks all the languages in the world, has his private post office and souvenir shops. Meeting him in person and having a private chat with him definitely was something any child has ever wanted, but we got outrageously ripped off for an official photo with him. At least we have a proof now that we actually saw him.

*UPS*

The dwarfs weren't as mean as they might look like ;)
