    Shopping at the Kringlan

    December 22, 2023 in Iceland ⋅ ☀️ 19 °F

    This mall is "a bit" nicer than Towne East. 😝 Today's adventure involved jet lag, so we got a late start. First, we retraced yesterday's icy journey back to the bus stop, where we caught the #6 to the mall.

    McKelvie is an old hand at this, but these Straeto bus drivers DO NOT mess around. Get on the bus or get left. If you don't have payment ready, you are screwed. And you better find a seat fast, or you will face plant as they floor it to their next stop. After a short bit intense ride, we made it to the mall, and it was packed in a way designed to give me anxiety.

    However, I've never seen such a nice food court, everyone was friendly, and it was entertaining to hear "I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" in Icelandic.

    We hit up a couple of stores for some necessities and decided we'd had enough. Just too many people. We will try again after the holiday.
