After an uneventful and fairly sleepless 5 hour flight, we landed at Keflavik International Airport then took a 40 minute ride by bus into Reykjavik, Iceland where we’re staying for two days and one night.
The first thing I noticed when I got off of the plane was the air had the distinct smell of freezer burn. Weird coincidence? Perhaps. The landscape we’ve encountered thus far on the bus ride has been fairly barrend volcanic, rock, scrub brush, heather and this end of the island is as flat as a pancake. The horizon is sort of an Arizona-meets-Arctic Circle look.
We found our hotel and they let us check in at 9am. Our room is basic and has nice wood floors. Once we stowed our bags in our room, we headed down to a complimentary breakfast. The heart shaped waffles were tasty but I couldn’t keep my eyes open after breakfast, so I laid down with the intention of taking an hour nap, but slept for four. Philipp was just as tired, so he snoozed too.
It’s 3pm now and we’re heading out to snoop Iceland.
Time to go wandering.

Hmm, I wonder how many blogs have a freezer burn tag? And how often you’ll get to use it? 🙂
haha!
When Philipp set up this blog he told me to use key words for tags. It seems to me that setting up tags that make sense can be a slippery thing because not everyone thinks in the same way.
Hopefully Paris will be warmer in the morning 🙂
