Iceland

Flying to Iceland today at 2.30 Danish time so we just chill for the morning. We fly with Icelandair. Of all my flights I haven't used the same airline twice.
It takes 3 hours to fly to the International Airport at Keflavik but due to time difference, when we land it is only 3.30 Icelandic time.
We meet our Icelandic guide Frederick (roll the r's to say it in Icelandic ) and bus driver Ragnar or Raggie for short.

They are using lupins to stop ash and soil from blowing around but they have also become a weed they don't know how to control. Seems they haven't heard about spraying? Some people are actually using the seeds for food now. In August the fields are blue with flowers.
We drove to Reykjavik via some stony lava country, along the coast and stop into a boiling mud pool and steam vent area. Very sulphuric

We have a lovely buffet dinner at a local restaurant and then fall into bed.Read more
