THIS WAS IT!

My last days on iceland I was so lucky to have to good friends coming visiting...one girl from Norway and a guy from Denamrk....who both live in Sweden. And we were gathered in Iceland. Nice:)
Here me and Tage are eating lobstersoup, mmmmmm!!

Birgitte!!

Whale was also on the menu....

In the evening we went to hemmi & valdi for some wine and beer. And knitting:)

And later I made some dinner for my guests!!


The next morning we all gathered and took the bus to Hveragerði. We ALMOST missed the bus, ca 2 seconds more and we would have lost it...
the sun had not yet come up, but the view was NIIIICE!

one happy crowd: Tage, me, Adrien, Paso and Earthguy

ææææææææææ!!!!

not sure I know this person..... well maybe. we call him Adrien. or Cri Cri d´amour.... or just the crazy french guy. We love you:)
the sun was on it´s way up when we started walking towards the mountain.
We met some cool, fluffy horses on the way....KOSE KOSE KOSE!

ups......


I got a nice shot of Birgitte and Tage i the steam coming up from the ground


the ground was boiling all around us....it was surreal.

We had to cross a river, and when I got in the water and discovered that it was over bodytemperature, it was just AMAZING!! I had prepared for a shitty-cold mountain-river...

over!

And when we had walked for 15-20 minutes more, we found the place where a hot and a cold river meet, and the temperature is just PERFECT!!!! So, then it was just to undress and GET OUR ASSES IN THE WATER!

Adrien and Earthguy were very content.

I didn´t feel too bad either...:)



Birgitte and me! And a beer

Earthguy was totally in his element, I have never ever seen him so happy....

SKÀL!!!
some guy we met out in the freezing cold, looking for the way....
we saw Jesus as well....awesome.

and one of Jesus´friends....
Héléne in the arms of Cri Cri who was so nice to carry her over the river again...
we also found a dog up there on the mountain...we suspect he was a local guide. Anyway, he followed us ALL the way down the mountain and into the city and the bus... then it was gone...:(
waiting for the bus....I was cleaning my jacket (after the dogs paws...), while Birgitte was...
....testing all the icelandig candy:)

Morning after, it was time to go to church! Well, at least up in the tower...

...where the view was GREAT!!!

Esja in the background

Then, it was time for one last coffee at Kaffesmiðjan, BEST COFFEE IN TOWN! Tage was writing postcards....MANY!!!

I am tired and have no idea what I´m looking at.
Birgitte was knitting :)

we had to go to 12 tonar and listen to some good, icelandic music as well..


CAFE, again :) Tiu Dropar, and the man in the background who´s always there:)

Tage
After the cafe, I went to the pool one last time with Bjarki and Birgitte! AHHHH HOW I WILL MISS GOING TO SUNDLAUG!!! BEST THING EVER!!
well, after boiling for one hour there, it was time for TAPAS at
Tapasbarinn to eat good food with my friends!!

wine was also included (oh what a great shock)

next: Bakkus!!!

and some wine at Lækjartorg....


next: Hemmi og Valdi

someone I don´t know and mr Fraser!!

10 seconds of dancing in Karamba

And saying goodbye to Madde!!!!!

me, Paso and Adrien in Kaffibarinn. Last place, last picture of the last night!

And then it was all over.
I miss it already...!!! :(
