I took the train from Luleå to Abisko turist station on 23.6. in the morning. In Abisko, the sun was shining but in the surroundings it was cloudy. The following days were more or less (more) cloudy or rainy. When it was time for putting up the tent or packing things in the mornings or eating time, it didn't rain - thank God! There's no more pics much after Sälka since I broke my digital camera. I had benumbed hands once I wanted to take a pic of a big glacier beside a lake. Just right after swithing it on I succeeded to drop the camera and it landed on a stone breaking the objective. The pics are taken with Canon Ixus50. (Yes, my previous Sony P-92 got broken the same way. So when I bought my Canon I had signed an insurance covering everything .)
In general, I liked the hike from Abisko to Kebnekaise. It wasn't really like a walk in the park but still quite easy. Since I was there quite early in the summer, there was quite much snow but no Swedish airforce - the mosquitos - on the spot!
I absolutely hike again... with a better tent though.
