Hi

Following the trip related to the thread below to Saariselka last April - and another lovely scandinavian trip to Stockholm a week ago, we are planning to head again to Lapland over Christmas.

I was about to book again a cottage in Saariselka but couldn't find the right flight connections (will call Finnair tomorrow to see if they can fix this issue - it seems the connaction in HEL is too short for them to take the booking on their website). Rovaniemi isn't looking good either.

What other alternatives could you recommend sharing similar characteristics - family oriented (we have 2 kids, the oldest is 4y o ) and we don't ski but will enjoy northern lights, dog slegging, ice fishing, snowmobiling, walking, snowtoboggan as well as Santa related activities - We could do without Santa but the eldest kid will be upset.

It could be anywhere in Scandinavia, but I liked the size of Sariseelka.

Thanks for all info, I'm a little in a rush as in saariselka many of the better cottages are already rented out for that period.

Thanks
Luis
