My birthday!

I had a wonderful birthday in Iceland despite having some sort of viral death sentence. I have never hacked up such disgusting stuff in my life!

Shannon and I toured the country side and saw two beautiful waterfalls, a geyser, a national park where the World´s first parliment was held and the we took a dip in the Blue Lagoon. Despite having idiots on the tour that couldn´t tell time and waiting 45 minutes for the last dummies, it was a great way to spend a birthday. I didn´t get to party it up because I was just too sick, but we did manage to walk to the city centre during a huge festival they were having. The Icelandic are incredible dressers, and the fashions are to die for. In order to buy them, you would likely have to promise your first born because it is sooooooo expensive. I almost bought a jacket until I figured out that it would have cost me $358 dollars. YIKES!

Moment of the day: Leanne falls in love with these knitted gloves that don´t have any fingers in them (they are basically just wrist warmers) and she almost buys them until the woman at the counter calculates that they would cost $58 CDN.

Everyone in Iceland has incredibly good English. It´s been a treat after dealing with the French.
