This week, I have...
... skidooed. I believe that is the verb for riding about on about the third motorised vehicle I have ever been in control of. I can see why they won't give me a license.
... dogsledded. It was completely awesome, although what was less awesome was watching them poo as they ran. Or maybe that's the proper explanation of awesome. It's just not my definition of awesome.
It was, however, awesome to watch Martin chase after the runaway sled, which Mike was being whisked away by, by over enthusiastic huskeys.
... Met a man called Susi. He was much better dressed than me and informed me that Susi means wolf. From here on in, I'd like to be addressed as Wolf-girl.
... cuddled a puppy. He smelt. But was cute.
... I also went river floating, in a great big orange suit
...and went in an authentic sauna followed by jumping in an ice plunge pool in a lake
... this involved naked journalists
... sadly I have no photos of this

It was definitely the best press trip ever. In fact, it's sneaked into my 'Top holiday' list.
Please feel free to watch a video of dog sledding. Get really close to the screen and bump up and down on your seat, and it'll be like you were there. About halfway through, the bumps really kick in.
