Cold is Good

by tanseaway - last update: Feb 28, 2005

Ice Hotel

Ice Hotel - Entrance
Visited the Ice Hotel in Kiruna, Sweden last year. It was unseasonably warm while I was there... -10 deg Celsius!

Anyway, some call this hotel the world's largest igloo. There are a variety of suites in addition to standard rooms - all are open to guests/visitors to wander around and take photos during the day. It is an even -5 deg Celsius inside the hotel at all times.

WARNING: Digital cameras don't last too long in the cold - 5 snaps is the general limit before the camera shuts down and needs to be warmed up! Also - all that ice and snow means that flash photography does not produce good results. Keep the flash off
Ice Bar

Absolut Ice Bar

The best way to warm up - VODKA! The Absolut Ice Bar is amazing - everything is made of ice! The bar, the glasses, the seats, the tables...
