3 weeks agoWish You Were Here: A trip to the iconic ice hotel in Sweden
The hotel is made entirely out of ice and snow, and drinks are served out of ice lasses. The ice blocks are gathered from the nearby Torne River each year and molded by artists and sculptors to construct the temporary residence. Rick and Joy enjoyed local delicacies from the hotel restaurant's ice menu and slept on an ice mattress. They went snowmobiling, dog sledding, Icelandic horseback riding and reindeer sledding, then soaked in the views of the northern lights.
