Pretty view
The views outside of the windows was so pretty! It was hard to capture.
At Nellim!
We made it to Nellim Wilderness Lodge! It was around lunch time, as you can see. This is the main lodge as well as the dining room. They gave us a cup of glögi.. It was really good! We got all checked in and ate lunch!

Replacement toothpaste
We got up SUPER early and caught a cab to the airport. The guy at the front desk asked us, "How was your night in prison?" LOL!! So, we couldn't find our toothpaste. It seemed like a weird thing to leave behind since we pack as we use things but, it wasn't there. Luckily there was a pharmacy at the airport and they sold full tubes of toothpaste!
