And the last thing to do:<BR><BR>Have a drink (or a bottle) of "Svartadaudir" (Black Death). Nothing compares, and only Icelanders survive this homemade stuff.....<BR>Bjorn, Oslo

Sylvia (and anyone else :) )<BR><BR>Where in Iceland did you see icebergs? <BR>

Ok, Amy, I have to ask even if this isn't what this discussion is about! How in the world do you afford so many trips?! From someone who wants to see the world, I'd like to know your secret!! You just aren't exceedingly rich are you?!?! I hope not, cause then I have no hope, at least not right now, LOL!!

Um, maybe you have me confused with someone else...I only go on about two or three trips a year, which is the cost of<BR>1. the car that I don't have since I live in a city with a great public transportation system<BR>2. the business suits I don't have to buy 'cause I can dress like Ms. Frizzle, and <BR>3. the perpetual supply of really good chocolate that I don't have because I prefer to travel instead!<BR>(Not to mention that I travel sorta cheaply.)<BR><BR>Of course, I've been travelling for a loooooong time, so I've been to a lot of places. Age is a good thing.

#101 - find Bjork's house, stand in front, take a picture - go back to the states and show it to your fellow Bjork fan friends - who will be totally envious

Up for Dave's Days!

Sending this up for Greg the radio guy...<BR>and 'cause I'm getting homesick for Iceland and December's a long way away....<BR><BR>and it's 98 degrees outside.

I will have to add the 101 here:<BR><BR>101) The cooles group in the world - Sigur Ros - they are like the voice of the angels. don't miss it.

just read these somewhere:<BR>102. 80% of homes in Reykjavik are geothermatically heated. it's also the cleanest capital city in the world.<BR><BR>103. Icelanders have the longest life expectancy in the world. (I thought it was Japan)<BR><BR>104. It is illegal to burn trees or shrubs in Iceland<BR><BR>105. There are 45 golf courses in Iceland<BR><BR>106. 11% of Iceland is covered with glaciers<BR><BR>107. You cannot graduate from school in Iceland unless you know how to swim.

Anyone for 200?

108. The Iceland Review online...wonderful resource.<BR><BR>(I'm also seeing if topping this will put it back into the indexing...but at least now I've got it saved in my files.)

Topping this again (my apologies) for the general query on Iceland, as this post is no longer in the indexing.<BR><BR>I'm getting ready to book for New Year's in Iceland--bonfires, parties, fireworks...sounds like lots of fun!<BR><BR>If anybody knows a way to get this re-indexed (er, is that the word?) I'd appreciate it.

Hello, brave and intrepid souls!<BR><BR>I'm trying this just one more time--bringing the thread back into circulation to see if now, now that a wind of change has blown through (et cetera), now this thread can become indexed again.<BR><BR>I'm just an eternal optimist, I guess!<BR><BR>(PS I didn't get there at New Years--no connecting flight available New Years' Day {so I went to Vancouver instead and had a great time, but that's a different board} so I'm hoping to do so next New Year)

To the top for annie613~~Happy trails to all!

...and the 100th post about the 100 best things in Iceland.<BR><BR>100. A supermarket where the clerk tells you the total in accentless Japlish, knowing well that almost nobody speaks Icelandic except Icelanders.<BR><BR>(Runner-up is the pleasant shopping center in Reykjavik, the largest in the country. It is not too large! ...but fun, nonetheless.)
