For the people who live in the South, like people in Bangladesh, I guess it's pretty hard to imagine to drive OVER A SEA..frozen sea...I remember the first time I saw a frozen sea! It was awesome.

Few days ago was Shanila's first time over the frozen sea. Great many thanks to Akseli and Sakari who toke us there with their cars. Our plan was to go to an island using the ferry and then come back using the 'ice road'.


We started at around 6:30 pm... Icy frozen around

Clear sky and -25 degree celcius!


At some point we seemed to drive out of city lights


The ferry was just right there... excellent timing.
Ours was the only car on the ferry !

Then ferry started moving through the frozen sea....
It's really dark all around... too dark for the camera to get any better pic.

I could pretty easily imagine how it would feel like to go to north pole aboard a ice breaker!
(even though the ferry was not an ice breaker)

I was excited enough to drag Shanila on the upper deck corridor...
Fweh that was freakingly shiverring cold !!

The corridor felt like the coldest we have ever felt !!


We went to the Island and found that ice road was not strong enough to drive on :(
Bad luck... so we had to wait 1 hour until the ferry comes back!

We stopped in a dark place to enjoy the stars!!
There were so many !!

Here we are except me!!

It was an excellent and frozen night at below -25degree.

Thank you guys :)

Oh I have little video too, but unfortunately it was too dark for my camera to get a better video.
