Our next stop was Luleå, the capital of Norrbotton County and about 9 hours drive from Gavle.
This was our longest drive of the trip and the weather was pretty bad, with snow, icy roads and darkness, but Kris did a great job with the drive and we arrived at our accommodation in Luleå around 6pm after a stop in Umeå for a late lunch. We were checked in at the First Camp Arcus, which is mostly a summer camp but the cabin was cozy for a night's stay.
We also came across reindeer crossing the road as a herd with their reflective collars - the photos weren't the best as it was very dark:

The next morning we had our final push to Kiruna, but we didn't need to be there until 3pm, there was a blizzard expected in the morning and we were all tired, so we planned to have a later start.
For dinner, Kris whipped up a macaroni cheese with the leftovers we had.
