I am HERE in GREENLAND
Wow...we finally made it to Greenland...and what a task to get here...it's funny how things work out for the best...here we all were sitting for hours in the little Reykjavik airport, a bit despondent, about our continuous delays...and then the final blow of the cancellation, after finally making it through security & to the gate...But … Continue reading I am HERE in GREENLAND
Greenland….Not Yet…It Seems
Well well well...the adventure continues...but today it took place in the Reykjavik Domestic Airport...And the day started so well with yet another delicious Iceland breakfast and a cheery sendoff from the proprietor of the little guest house I stayed...After slightly getting lost finding the airport, which was less than a mile and a half away, … Continue reading Greenland….Not Yet…It Seems

That is one of my favorite things on trips like this...meeting people from different countries and hearing their prospective … Continue reading Snaefellsnes

Today was to be my longest drive...and add into that all the amazing and interesting places that I am to stop, I had about a good 10-12 hour day in front … Continue reading Akureyri to Snaefellsnes
Myvatn and Akureyri
To keep up with my traveling tradition, I ended up at a medical Clinic today to deal with what appears to be some sort of internal pain, not related to the food or country....but on the bright side, it allowed me to check out, yet, another country's healthcare...Iceland's is impressive...I walked in...once I finally found … Continue reading Myvatn and Akureyri
Myvatn Iceland
This is the part of Iceland that is geared more for tourism and has all sorts of activities set...The East is far more wild and less populated...and there is a feeling of super individualism...you'll see one house for miles and miles...here it is far more populated...Now, having said that, this area is still very sparse...keep … Continue reading Myvatn Iceland
