      From Berlin to Reykjavik

      June 25, 2023 in Iceland ⋅ 🌧 7 °C

      Our second time in Iceland has started. First we went to Prague, where my parents picked William up. I still can't imagine being a week without him, but he was very brave while telling us good bye :). Then we quickly went back home to pack everything including some Equipment we've never used before. 4 hours of sleep and after that right to the Berlin Airport. After long queues and some delay we finally landed in Keflavik. It seemed so familiar - it is not even a year ago, we were here the last time :) the first thing that had to be done was buying an about 1 kg licorice-chocolate Bons in a duty free shop to be prepared for the 45 minutes bustrip to Reykjavik (and for everything else what's going to come after). Outside it was 11°C and pourring rain, the real islandic summer so to say.
      The first night we are staying in the very nice student dormitory at the University of Iceland :) a nice room with two beds and without a bathroom for 134€, then a perfect dinner with islandic lamb, salad and cod fish for the same price - I guess we can't afford to live like islandic students every day 😃 but it was definitely worth it, no wonder that the Old Iceland Restaurant on the Laugavegur street never has a free table without a reservation.
      We came back ,,home" absolutely wet and tired and even if It's weird to go to sleep while it's always light outside, we must try it to be prepared for tomorrow.
