Spent the day driving around the country...saw landscapes that were most certainly different planets...we named them Mars, Mercury, and Venus. Justine got more excited about the Geysers than she's ever been about anything in her life. Finished the day with wonderful Spanish Tapas, and went to the local Irish Pub to listen to a band play some of the most ridiculous covers of American pop standards that you could imagine. It's day three now, we're about to find delicious lunch and maybe some art museums downtown. Happy New Year's Eve.

Iceland, day one, part two
The sun comes up at 11am local here...and we timed our elevator ride up a several hundred feet tall steeple just right that I was able to shoot about 100 photos of the sun coming up over downtown. We spent a bit of time exploring, popped in a few shops, and had Greek food for lunch. I'm excited about the pics I got this morning, and hope to post them later tonite. After dinner, we are taking a Jeep ride to see the Northern Lites...so...hopefully more excellent photos there. A few notes: All the sodas are 40's, all the taxis are Mercedes, and all the satellite dishes point down about 15 degrees. -chall
Iceland, day one
Perfect trip over...all flites on time...very well run airline and airports, successful bus trip to downtown, Justine used her ipod to guide us right to the hotel front door, they had breakfast waiting on us. The room is very nice and spacious, the wifi is fast, and the shower water is very hot. We did lose power at the hotel for about 15 minutes...we're pretty sure it was Justine's fault. We've been up for almost 24 hours, but are going to try and stay up another 16 or so to acclimate to the local time (GMT). Not sure yet what we'll spend the day doing...but, we're probably just about to get out and explore. Weather is perfect...T-shirt with light jacket if you're gonna be outside a while. Everything is dandy so far. -chall
