We are off to the Arctic Circle. They are forecasting temps in the -20C. I hope we have enough layers. This will be our first overnight train adventure in Sweden. We headed off to T-Centralen and wandered around trying to find platform four. It was “wellmarked” since the building in under construction. We found the train with minutes to spare and ended up running the last leg. Ellie was so excited. She just couldn’t imagine how you could sleep on a train. Our bunkmate was a 20 something guy from Japan who had quit his job and was touring Europe. Ellie was so excited to explore the train and to watch the scenery go by. We even went through a couple of tunnels which made Ellie feel better since she thinks all trains should run underground.
At bedtime we got our bunks set up and Ellie snuggled right in and went to sleep. She only woke up once during the night for a bathroom break. We had two more bunk mates join us about 11pm and she slept right through them getting settled.
