My life is complete. I had the fortune to go on a dog sledding excursion this morning! Twelve of us went on three sleds. Four of us were sitting on the sled and I sat in the front. It felt like my eyeballs were freezing. We were sitting on reindeer hide. We all had to put on these giant jumpsuits but they turned out to be so warm. Apparently a few weeks ago the company we went with took Kate Moss and her family on a trip. One of our guides said the wild woods are great because everyone is equal. Everyone gets cold, no matter if you're a celebrity.
They also had the American ambassador one year on a tour who was escorted by Swedish guards on snowmobiles. The Swedish princess wanted to go for a ride during their busiest week so the tour company gave them the price it would cost for a special tour and the royal family was upset they had to pay and went elsewhere.
Our guide loved to talk about American culture based on the movies he's seen like American Pie, Rambo and the TV show Fargo. He was joking he bought the company yesterday and read up online how to dog sled. Also that he was drunk. He also liked to talk about politics.

hungry dogs after their work out
The thing that impressed me most about dog sledding is how swift and silent it is. What do you mean you are definitely getting a husky? TRAITOR! luvyaanywayiceprincess
