A year in lapland

Postmarked Kilpisjärvi, dated 4 May 2009.

This lovely card comes from someone living in Lapland, above the Arctic Circle.  The village of Kilpisjärvi is just 50 km from the Arctic Ocean, and is near the point at which the borders of Finland, Norway and Sweden meet.  It is Sweden's most northerly point, and the most westerly point of Finland's mainland.
