J and I got up early and took a walk on the lovely trail he found last night. It went past a horse racetrack for a short ways. We are wondering if that's why our landlady chose this location to live. She is obviously a horse lover. There are dozens of trophies in the apartment for some sort of horse-related activity. I can't understand what they say, but they have horse pictures on them. She will be coming home tomorrow from her summerhome so I'll ask her then.
Before we dropped J off at the airport we stopped at the Vikingaheimar museum. It had a replica of a Viking ship you can board. Lots of Viking and Norse god info. Also a claim Christopher Columbus went to Iceland in 1477 to find out about Leif's trip to Vinland. I had never heard of that before but they swear it's true.
Here are J and G on the Viking ship.
Good looking ship! But who are those beardless and ax-less landlubbers onboard? Leif would have pitched them into the sea!
