Weather in Reykjavik, Iceland today:  50 degrees and sunny.
Weather in Denver:  90 degrees and humid.
Easy choice.

I'm packing for our trip to Iceland.  My suitcase is full of hiking gear:  boots, hiking stick, 7 pair of smart wool socks (love 'em!), long underwear (we are going to Iceland after all), compass, binoculars, towel and swimsuit in case we find a geothermal hot-pot to take a dip.

Anyway, with all the hiking gear, there isn't much room for clothes, so I packed two pair of pants, two shirts and a couple turtle necks.  There, done!  I figure if you are going for 16 days to a country with no laundromats you either pack 8 pairs of pants, or two pair of drip dry pants.  I choose the latter.

Things I've been wondering about:
Will we see the Northern lights?
Will there be vegetables for us to eat?
Will G be able to pronounce Eyjafjallajokull?
Do they throw axes?

  1. I hope you packed your ax! True Vikings never left home without them.
