@Buckstop75, you are correct and it is neat that you had been posted to Iceland. We were only there for about three days, but had a great time and I want to go back again to see more of the country - but I am not sure if I would want to be there in the winter!!! I agree that Reykjavik was a fun friendly place, and there was so many places to hike in the countryside. Thank you very much for the comments!
@cre8art - thank you very much for the comments! Because of our flights, we stayed up all night. We were there on the longest day of the year and it never got dark and we never saw any stars, just the moon. Again, it is hard for me to imagine how dark it would be n the winter. And I noticed that about the gas pumps, too. Thant is one of the interesting things about travel - you see that many things can be done differently from what you are used to…
@AiDon - your google search is correct! I love google earth, any my gps makes driving and navigating far easier, but I miss the old days when you had to rely on maps…
