How to sleep in an ice bed at the Icehotel in 14 easy steps: 1. Get out of your warm clothes, and keep only your thermal layer and boots 2. Pick up your arctic sleeping bag and liner and get a quick refresher on how not to freeze 3. Wrap your sleeping back around you, and exit the warm building 4. Say goodbye to feeling safe and secure :D 5. Quickly walk to your ice room, lay out your bag on the bed of ice-pad-reindeer skins, slip off your boots, drop your locker key into your boot, slip into your liner, slip into your sleeping bag, zip up without getting the material caught, close up the little space around your face so only your mouth and nose are exposed 6. Curse because you realize you need to unzip, snake your arm out to shut off the lights and zip up again 7. Wait to get warm 8. Realize that maybe you are imagining it being cold because you actually feel quite toasty, except for your face, which feels like a popsicle 9. Lay in near-darkness and profound silence 10. Smile, because you are fulfilling a life-long dream 11. Drift in and out of sleep 12. Get woken up at 7 am by a handsome and cheery Swede bearing a cup of hot lingonberry juice 13. Crawl out of your bag, quickly slip into boots, wrap your sleeping bag around you and re-enter the warm building and the place of sane temperatures 14. Take a hot shower, pick up your diploma and wear a big smile on your face. YOU DID IT!
