The land of the Ice 2

Despite the lack of inbuilt ice machines in the refrigerators, there is no lack of ice in Sweden. At least in the winter time...

If you have the time to travel way way north- you can stay a night in a hotel made completely of ice - The Icehotel. (oh, they'll give you thermal sleeping bags, included in the price...). They have a church, a restaurant, a gallery... It looks cool. In the pictures (there is no accident I live in sunny California... I have never been to Jukkasjärvi...).

If you want to stick around in Stockholm, and not travel above the Arctic circle - you can take a drink in a bar made completely made of ice - The Absolute Icebar at the Nordic Sea Hotel in downtown Stockholm. And go home and sleep in a bed in a room with central heating...
