I did some crazy things in Lapland (Finland) this time. At Levi where we stayed the temperature was always in minus, from -22 to -1! So, the Finns enjoy sitting in a sauna because it is cold and they took us there too. But for some crazy reason they like taking a dip in ice water in between. Now if they could do it, how can we be left behind? So, I also took a dip in icy water and ran back to the sauna.
However we were still not content. We had to go making snow angels. This basically means lying down in snow in your bathing suites and flapping your arms and legs so that the impression in the snow looks like an angel after you get up and run for your life. There are no pictures in the video (and that is why it was easy to post it) but hear us scream as we make snow angels! Boy I was glad to get inside the steaming sauna after this adventure! My feet felt numb for quite sometime even in the sauna. It was for the central heating that I came out alive from this trip. That and the excellent winter gear the Nokia people gave us. It made all the difference.
I have not made this video, I was out there making snow angels and screaming. This was given to me by a member of the Chinese media team, she was sensible and she didn’t do all this! I am now using a Lumia 1020 which was given to me as a member of #LumiainLapland event. This video was also shot on a Lumia 1020.
Certainly sounds like you had a crazy time 🙂
Yes it was, it was!
wow it must have been quite an experience!!!
the video is more of an audio though 🙂
Yes hence I could post it, not sure I will put swim suit pictures in my blog.
Crazy… Back being like kids all of you..Hehehe..
Yes Preethi!
Wow! I could run outside in the snow from sauna but I’d skip the dip in the cold water and the angels in the snow. LOL.
Joyful I plead temporary insanity!
-22! OMG! You did it!?! I am the worst suitable for this type of fun… But enjoyed reading and watching the video 🙂 Congrats for the new Lumia 1020 🙂
Sindhu if I thought about it rationally I would never do it 😀
