I was working this week on an article about "laptop security." I referred to it to a friend as "Lapland security" and then realized I wasn't even sure if Lapland existed any more, or if it had been renamed, like Istanbul (was Contstantinople). A little research tells me that it does indeed exist and the pictures look beautiful. Makes me want to go, although I don't speak the language.

Can you tell I need a vacation?

Fun fact: Rovaniemi is the administrative center and also apparently "Santa's hometown". Apparently Santa answers his own mail, although like many of us, he usually can't get to it until after the holidays.
