Home again

We left the hotel at 04:00 in the middle of a snow storm, the roads had not been cleared as there is normally not much going on at that time on a Sunday morning. The wipers on the coach stopped working half an hour or more before we arrived at the airport, but thankfully we were only delayed by an hour. So getting home with 2 hours sleep under my belt, I could not really manage anything except sleeping for a couple of hours and then to bed early. (J had other ideas about any of us sleeping well though...)
So Iceland, how was it? I hear you all ask.
It is a pretty special place, not like anywhere else I have been. The cold was apparently unusually severe, but the landscape was amazing, with steam apparently emitted from the ground all over the place and most streams and rivers lined with ice from the water vapor freezing to the grass. I'd like to go back and see Reykjavik and take a bit more time to explore, but preferably when someone else is paying again.

At the quad biking - last picture before the battery died :-(

Off Road!
