Here's a little write up I put together of my 2007 Vasaloppet trip.
Really enjoyed the experience. Hard to believe it was only a week ago.

Nice story and photos! I can't imagine going 90k. Have you
considered carrying a step-down converter (220 to 110v)?

Great trip story !!!!!!
We had blue extra conditions last year - perfect kick waxing conditions, but
fresh snow made it slow going. Sounds like you had some tough kick waxing
to deal with.

Its also great you got to go early and take in some of the earlier races !!

Great report and pictures. Sounds like the conditions were
challenging this year. I'm looking forward to returning some day.

On going 90 K, here's my trick: One 10K at a time X 9 of them ;-)

Didn't consider a converter. Will do for the next time. Thanks for
the feedback and the suggestion.

I thoroughly enjoyed your Vasaloppet story, and your Keskinada account
elsewhere, too. Thanks for contributing it!
