Mora and Åre

Ok so since we last left you hanging much has happened.
We got on the train and went up to mora. SUCH A SHITHOLE, well not really but nothing was open due to it being sunday so pretty boring time. Well no thats not true we spent a sufficient amount of time investigating the different petrol stations they have in mora because they were open and were our only option for food basically.
so theres statoil: good service but price was a bit steep
Shell was the most accessible but prices again were pretty high and service was awesome funny guy commented on how we bought icecream and julmust(we shared a chuckle)
Q8 close to our other food option the hotdog place and pretty good in terms of variety.

so we bummed the first night as it was pretty late when we got there. by late we mean 3oclock but its dark like midnight. Next day we got up and checked out mora where everything was closed. GREAT PLANNING! then we asked the receptionists at the hotel what we should do. she looked at lachy confused and then said basically ... uh theres nothing. so we got on a train and went to a christmaas market in tällby which is like 2 stops from mora. but hedda packed our scanrail tickets in our bags back at the hotel so we had to pay which was pretty expenive for the little enjoyment we got. Anyway got to tällby and saw that the next train back left at 3oclock so we kept that in mind as we made our way to the other side of tällby. i had greenhotel in my head so we went there which ended up being the wrong place because they had had the xmas market the day before, so we had to go even further to get to where it was. got there just in time for it to finish damn walking speed. But we had waffles with hjortron sauce and cream which was awesome and hedda got to buy some tourist crap. Then we realised were gonna miss our 3 oclock if we didnt hurry. By hurry i mean RUN! so we started off walking fast cause hedda was really against running. then we forced her to run (she made funny sounds) then she (thought she) couldnt run anymore so we had to carry her. First i slung her over my shoulder and sprinted up a hill (SHE MADE EVEN FUNNIER NOISES LIKE VOMITING!) then my legs died and i was wow that really takes it out of you. So the man lachy stepped in and piggy backed hedda the rest of the way like steed. Safe to say i felt pretty emasculated. He ran like three times further than me. anyway we got to the station and the train was 10 min late so we could have walked probably. Anyway got back to mora and got our bags and got on the train to go to åre. On the train we met tony the frinedly Fat controller(not really fat but thomas the tank engine joke for those of you out there with any culture) He was nice. gave us free tickets to his nightclub and let hedda and lachy see the train drivers cockpit and rode between two stops. We went back to stockholm cause otherwise we would have been locked out of the station at uppsala. Got on the train in stockholm and went all the way up to åre. Nothing much happend on the rifde here. We got here and went shopping fixed rental gear and found our awesome house. $20 for and awesome 54msquared appartment. next day we went to åre björnen cause the lift like 100m from our door isnt open cause snow cover here is kinda crap. Björnen is open though and is pretty good for beginners so we tried snowboarding. we are all beginners so it was good though it was really icy first day so falling over was REALLY painful. I have problems sitting on chairs anymore. hedda gives up a few hours into it and goes inside to read. but me and lachy seem to be improving dramatically although we havnt had lessons. They even invited us back for the world championships which will be held here next year. but we told them we had to go to uni. So last two days have been much of the same just improving and its been snowing yesterday and today so falling isnt quite as painful though falling on previous bruises kind of counters that. Gonna go have dinner now. Oh in åre we met another crazy guy who works the lift. He talks a lot and tells really unfunny jokes ''what do the birds over stockholm say'' ''piip piip piip... hahahaha'''
