Iceland is a Frigid Beast!


Reykjavik is an interesting little city with a lot of character. We spent an entire day walking the icy streets looking at Viking stuff and trying to pronounce signs. Icelandic is unlike any language I have ever heard and most of their words look like someone key mashed their keyboard. I have yes (ja) no (nei) and thank you (tak) down so far and that is probably going to be the extent of it. The food here is pretty gnarly! They actually serve quite a bit of whale and puffin, but its so pricey here that I haven't been very adventurous. We took an amazing tour of the lava fields while riding Icelandic Horses. My mini-horse (ear and hair pictured in the corner above) was very friendly...it only went crazy on me once.
