Two weeks ago

Two weeks ago today, after the most traumatic start to a day I’ve had for a long time, we managed to get on our flight to Reykjavik… two weeks ago right now we were relaxing, probably with a hot drink and a snack since we had missed our breakfast.

For some reason our alarm didn’t go off; this has never happened before and we woke at 6:15, gates closing at the airport – which is about 35 minutes away, at 7:00… somehow we made it… we didn’t park in our reserved prepaid parking place, we parked in short stay, ran, literally ran through passport control, security checks, and through the duty-free area to the gate where we had to pay for our luggage to be put on the plane… but, but we made it!

Stepping off the plane in Keflavik airport, I breathed in the beautiful Icelandic air and my chest seemed to expand and my mind relaxed and   was filled with excitement and optimism for the days ahead!

we had the most fabulous time! I am so in love with Iceland I want to go back again and again and again! Next time… and there definitely will be a next time… next time we will set about ten alarm clocks, and may even stay p all night because I never want to go through an airport dash like that again!!

Fresh Icelandic water!
