Note
Today was a rest day, or "activity" day, at Oringen, so we took it easy. Slept in late, had a leisurely morning, and finally got out of the house around 12:30. First stop was Oringen arena to do some shopping. And, emulating PG, I bought some O pants. Then we headed to Rödberget, one of the fortresses surrounding Boden.
The road up was very skinny, and after we parked, we saw the road was blocked by a van that was unable to go further because it couldn't get passed a parked car. So, we left our car there and hiked up the rest, hoping the situation would have cleared itself up by the time we got back.
The fortress was pretty cool. We opted not to go on the tour, and instead walked around the top of the fortress. We could see all of the area for Etapper 1 and 2, which was kind of cool. We picked out the arena location, the start for Etapp 2, and the big sandy desert that we ran across. When we headed back to our car, the road was clear, and we were able to escape.
Then we headed to a nearby cafe for vafflor och te. Så fint.
