Fifth & Sixth Week

You’re a 80s baby when you can dress up for the era using items already in your wardrobe.

Knitting is something every foreigner should learn.

Wool is cheaper than food.  If only you could eat it…

Coffee shops are the best places to do anything.

Two birthdays are always better than one.

Whale tastes less fishy and more like a salty steak.

Guilt tastes less bitter when you know your restaurant only kills one whale a year.

Hot dogs may not be the best drunk food, but dang are they amazing!

Homemade desserts are worth the sugar high for the taste of nostalgia.

Reykjavik is small town. You will randomly bump into everyone all the time.

Just cause someone’s so interesting you could talk until 8:00 doesn’t mean you should.

Studying two straight days for a test will burn you out. (Sometimes for an entire week.)

Brits don’t need to put ingredients on food products. I’d be concerned if it wasn’t so good.

Running into a 65kph rainstorm is exhilarating, a good workout, and painful on the face.

When heading into the countryside always dress warmer than you expect.

Super jeeps are the coolest, manliest things ever.  Terrain trembles before them.

Caves, no matter their size, are awesome, just watch your head… and feet.

Apparently wool keeps you warm even when wet.  My feet can verify that cotton doesn’t.

When soaked to the core, the best thing is a hot shower, hot chocolate, and Hot Rod.

Knitting is addictive.  Seriously.  And that’s a good thing when you’re cold and want a scarf.

Pipe organ is alright, but when you add a possessed, old-man warbler, it gets weird.

Projections are cool, but when you add a contortionist and demonic eye it gets weird.

Practically no buses run past 18:00.  Plan on walking.

Honestly though, remember to dress warm.  You’re in Iceland.  What’s wrong with you?!

Seeing a large movie collection is weird after only being able to stream movies.

Everyone needs a good heart to heart.  Just try not to have a breakdown on main street.

Large amounts of people walking around Reykjavik? Something must be up.

Being vegetarian is easy.  It’s working meat into meals that’s a challenge.

Windless days are weird.  Everything is too quiet.

1:30 is never too late to go out.

Sometimes you just need a really good stout.  When you do, pay whatever the price.
