day 07 turned out to become a day of relaxing, talking and doing research and planning stuff since we had no car key yet. thommy brought us to the airport near narvik where a bus was leaving for the town center. ulli and me drove to get the key from thommy's friend in narvik. sonja was doing the laundry in the meantime. the bus ride took us more than one hour, but after that the guy with our key was already waiting at the parking lot and handed it over. we finally got access to our car again - yippieh! driving back by car took us again more than one hour. losing car keys is pretty time consuming we found out. since we lost so much time, all plans had to be changed. currently we think about not going back to stockholm by car, but rather stay in the north of sweden (and maybe norway too) and drive back by a night train at the end of our trip. this saves a lot of time and is less exhausting than driving by car on icy roads and in total darkness (since we want to use the few hours of daylight for our activities). still no northern lights, but norway is so much warmer, due to the sea. temperatures range from -15 to -5 degrees. pretty warm compared to the -32 degrees we had in north sweden.
