On to Orsa....

Next we drove up to Orsa-Grönklitt...north of Mora (Vasaloppet).
The first cabin we were going to stay in was this "Faluröd" one....only the bathroom and bedrooms were on different floors, which would be a little difficult for our "nightly needy" parents with achey-painy legs, knees and backs....so back to the reception office where we were able to exchange for another place with everything on the same floor!
Not as cute but very modern...easy bathroom access and no bunk beds! These cabins are mostly for skiers as they had "drying closets" in them, sauna, and ski pole holders. The area was full with tourists from the Netherlands! Each time Maya went to play in the playground she came back to report that "Nobody speaks English or Swedish!"
One feature in our 'cabin' that was especially pleasing to Maya were the bar stools! She wanted to be served over the counter! "It's just so cool, Mommy!"
A view from the hill of our cabin....evening time.
Here's the best photo of all of us!
