Karesuando

The northernmost church village in Sweden.

And, Probably the two northernmost web cameras in the entire Europe! Hurtigruten's ship cameras are not counted for. LOL!

This picture shows the lowest point for the sun around midnight on the summer solstice.

Summer solstice is actually tomorrow, but since we are expecting rain for the next few days, I took the liberty to use a picture taken today the 21st. I don't think the difference will be noticable.
