Overnight trip! Our first tent trip of the season. On Saturday afternoon our, Jonas' and Mings humans came to the dog yard together with Harvey and Marzena (two of our 2-legged fans who some times takes us on trips and bring us food) and started packing the sledges, JUHU it was trip time! The boys and Jonas were in front of one sledge, the girls on another. Since Qimmiq is in heat we are not allowed to all run together. We were followed by Team Sava Vit but we out ran them! We had send Rico ahead on a snow scooter with our food, lines and the humans stuff (they do need a LOT). We arrived at the tent site, behind the Pingo on the other side of the valley after a short trip and the humans set up the Lavo and put us on lines ( we would rather have been out chasing reindeers) but we got seal for dinner so it was OK. The humans stayed all night in the tent with the oven on, eating what smelled like thai food and chocolate cake, while we were perfectly comfortable in the soft snow. We did get them out of the tent, and fast, when a unknown dog team raced by in the night and when Nuna managed to get loose by unscrewing and opening a safety carabiner! (nice work Mom! TQ). This afternoon we headed home (with a few stops on the way to discuss whether we should go reindeer hunting or not, the boring humans voted no every time). Bach home we had food and the humans went home to dry their tent and wash their gloves, they said they smelled like seal, like it was a bad thing......
