Åre!

The purpose of our trip, aside from having a sibling vacation together, was to celebrate James's birthday by dining at Faviken.  Faviken is located in the Åre Municipality in Jämtland County, Sweden.  

We took an eight-hour train ride North from Stockholm and arrived in Åre at dusk.  What a breathtakingly beautiful place!

Good sweet corn...it is NOT the same down here!
