In the train to Dallarna... Ah yee, see the oversized bonnet!!! I got so big a head meh?

Arrived at Mora! Daniel's (my colleague) house is in Dallarna, some 10km from Mora

In the car, heading to the skii slope! See? It's there...

Ramkumar, Daniel and I
I'm holding the pair of Carving Skiis =) Bright orange!
Daniel and his brother Fredrik

#$%&*)(#$%@ ... It's so fun to look at people fall, but not so fun to experience it yourself!

Up the ski lift.
(Please forgive my ridiculous look with the helmet.. better to have it than to break my neck, hehe)

The top of the scary red line. =)
Guess what they are doing?
NINTENDO WII~~~~~
I got to try one of these myself :P Great stuff!
Day 2, while waiting to go skating, Daniel brought out this fantastic board game called the EuroTrip. The objective is to build as many railways as possible. It's sooo long since i last played board games... nostalgic!
Then... off to skating! And, this is not normal skating, we skated on the lake! Special skates (longer ones) were needed cuz it's long distance. Figure skates (the ones we get from skating rink back home) couldn't move as far. =)
Dinner with Daniel's family... Papa Bengt was not in the picture. =)
The Swedish traditional dinner was fabulous! (we had moose, hehe)
