LONG overdue blogposts that have languished in the draft folder! - we updated to Facebook as we were traveling and it's hard to work up the motivation to do it again with more words!
We decided to go on a holiday where everything was different from our lives as Expats, and chose in April to go to Iceland for a (6) day fly drive (day six was a 7 am flight out of the country, so not a holiday day)
anyway, Iceland blew us away - in terms of the geography and nature, and on the first day the wind too!
19 - April Day 1 arrival
We had a challenging time driving into a new city with only (poorly) written instructions, but made it to our hotel, too late to do much except wander round and find food and enjoy the graffiti

20 April Day 2 -
We walked round Reykjavík in the drizzle - visiting the iconic Hallgrimmskirkja cathedral, and walking round the (open) city. Then our tour really began:
