As quickly as we gained an hour on Tuesday, we lost it again today. We crossed the river and left 'Cheap Land' Finland behind. We took the opportunity to stock up on food and entered Sweden fully loaded across the time border. Before that, we visited Tornio, and I think Juliane's jacket shopping took the longest time.
Finding a parking space was a bit more challenging - it should have a nice shower and electricity again. The first attempt was a campsite on an island in the Baltic Sea, but there was no one at the reception (we wanted to check in at 12 o'clock). Second attempt: a place right on the E6 - way too noisy! On the third attempt, we found what we were looking for: a motel with a few parking spaces right on a Baltic bay. We are the only ones here, and everyone is happy with a nice shower and free Wi-Fi.
The town of Kalix seamlessly fits in with the Scandinavian cities of the North that we have seen so far: 'You haven't missed anything if you haven't seen it!'
And now, just before six o'clock, it actually stopped raining for a moment!
