... had a turn: tenor Thor vs quiet Senn, Thordis vs Quinn (a closer match than the rest of us) and a very lame Lisa/Carson combo (we sucked- the dogs didn’t howl…but should have). OK, so the Icelanders are better singers, golfers and dancers than us! (We had found out that Thor and Thordis were Icelandic national champions in ballroom dance and great story about how they met each other.) We all had fun and went to sleep with hoarse ...

... hoe het water onder de grond vandaan komt. De talloze watervalletjes worden heel toepasselijk Hraunfossar (Lava watervallen) genoemd. Een klein stukje stroomopwaarts wringt de Hvita zich door een nauwe doorgang en vormt daar de Barnafoss.

We hebben ons prima vermaakt want voor An waren er ook ...
