What a great start to the
trip. Everything went really smoothly – except the plane was an hour late
leaving Denver because of the winds, TSA broke Annie’s lock (which was a TSA
approved one and supposedly they could just open easily), we missed our tour in
Reykjavik, we had a terrible time unlocking the lock box at our house/room
rental, the winds here are fierce and it’s freezing. Actually, we rescheduled
the tour with no trouble, spent most of yesterday walking around the city and
taking a free walking tour, our room is in a great location – right in the
middle of the city, it’s got a great kitchen and we share it with 4 other rooms
in the apartment (2 baths), were able to get a good/cheap pizza for lunch and
bought bread, butter and cheese to make sandwiches for dinner. Our bags are
much heavier to lug around than I expected so we’ll have to make some
adjustments but all in all it’s been a great start. Oh yeah, Annie slept over 9
hours last night (over double her normal sleep time) and I was up before her for
the first time ever so you know things are going well. The internet at the
apartment is very spotty so I don’t know when I’ll actually post this.
The city is nice and pretty
empty right now because it’s a holiday. Plenty of shops and it reminds me a little
of Halifax
