Geo,

I live in
Iceland & it is amazing. It's such a neat culture
- far different than the States. Having never left New
England, it's a total shock for me in every way.
Out of our window,
we see ocean, several small towns with glaciers & mountains in the background. It's
great!
In a 6hr.
trip, we saw huge open fields with tons of sheep - they're
everywhere here! We also saw
waterfalls, rivers, volcanoes, craters
& lots of geothermal
springs - almost as frequent as sheep. The weather is very
changeable. It can be sunny & nice one minute & pouring down rain the next!

"The people here all speak
this crazy Icelandic language."
|
I know a few words, such as: "godin
dagin", which means hello or good morning. The "d" in
godin has a slash through it, so it's pronounced "th". "takk"
is thank you and "bless" is good-bye.
I hear the club scene in Reykjavik
kicks some major @ss! I've yet to go, but believe me, I'll be there
soon. It's been a good experience, so far. We even have an Icelandic
kitten named Coco. -Colleen
