Sweden - Romme Alpin

We had such a cozy weekend last time and felt we had to go with the kids as soon as possible back to Romme.
​It’s not so easy to know how winter or activity level will be this year, so we take the opportunity now while it’s possible.

We were a bit nervous when we booked because the temp started to drop to plus degrees in Borlänge. We looked every day before the D day.

We left as soon as we could on Friday with the goal of collecting the youngsters' equipment before they closed the rental. It went very well and smoothly, we had pre-booked everything, so there was only a small correction in the boot sizes. It was snowing properly and was a bit too hot, but it felt like it was still okay to be carried on tomorrow.

We checked in and then sat down in a secluded part of the Lodge and took some snacks and drinks.
I think we sat there for a couple of hours talked, looked in mobiles and I had some work done. So incredibly relaxing.

17:15 it was time for dinner buffet. Since it's Friday, it became the American theme as last time. Maybe not the theme I think is most fun but there are some good things to find.
Now the authorities have introduced that you can only sit 4 people per table. Feels very silly when you are a family of 5 who also sleep in the same room. But it's not something we or they can do anything about. We had to sit on 2 tables and talk a little louder, so everyone could hear. But it doesn't matter, we are happy to finally do something properly together, so right now everything work.

Installation in a slightly larger room for 5 with the usual discussion about where everyone should sleep and who  decide first and last on our last trip.
A quiet evening where we adults fell asleep early while the youngsters had to sit down in the lobby and talk further with their friends online. The new way to socialize almost 24 hours a day, it feels like.

Breakfast buffet in the morning, which is always appreciated.
Then it was snowboarding for 2 hours for one of our young people and the rest of the day skiing. We were so lucky with the weather, even if it was a bit warmer than desired for skiing, but it was still okay. After lunch, some slopes were a little bit sticky, but there were several that continued to be good.
We were skiing from the start to the end of the day, and then it was time to go home.

Now we have cravings for next trip. 
​We are happy and satisfied and plan the next trip and keep track of the weather.
