Reality
Prepare to be health inspected and quarantined for safety when you get home. Order and have food and other items delivered. Places are shutting down left and right including schools till end of month. Be safe mom

Pandemics are running our world right now
Empathize with your travel problems, Sue. We are only just starting to be faced with limitations here and the simplest create havoc. Pity the folks in Italy who have the worst restrictions. At least China is seeing fewer cases of virus and may mean the worst is over in a couple of months Welcome home

stay safe-i have friends from Sedona Arizona who visited last week-they advise that some new archaeology digs are going on in several areas.Watch out for spitting camels and fare hustelers I am told the Cairo museum is impressive-upper Egypt is really good though.

What a great trip!
Susan, It was so nice to meet you. You have done an excellent job capturing your week in Iceland! You have a lot of great information for anyone thinking of doing a trip to Iceland. Once I get caught up from our trip I want to check out your blog of Croatia, and probably Greenland too! We had 3 sunny days after Sindri dropped us off in Borgarnes! We spent a day on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, a day at Landmannalaugar and a final day and a half back in Reykjavik. Can't wait to see what your next trip will be!

Sunshine in Iceland!
3 days???? Figures. And Cecilia & Nat went to see the Northern Lights Sunday eve and they said it was spectacular. Glad the rest of your trip went well.

Sounds like a beautiful place! Some of the history books pass fables/tales of Irish Hermit Monks who journeyed to and arrived prior to the vikings.Their bee hive like structures are said to still be found in remote areas near hot springs. The Celtic Culdee Church records these in their record.Point of interest.The Culdee is an early Celtic religious community-very mystical and contemplative in which men and women monks formed monastic communities.Very simular to cathar in France. Do not think their Iceland community survived, but possibly monumental ruins exist.Stay warm!

Response
Did not see any of those types of structures, and didn't get to that museum you suggested. We had a specific itinerary. I did hear that Vikings brought over Irish slaves.

imperialism
So, the happiest country on Earth also imperializes! Sounds like it would be tough to be a vegetarian in Greenland. Not enough green! Given your trials (from later blog-I’m reading these in reverse order), isn’t it amazing to imagine the toughness of people living there and emigrating from more comfortable home countries? Not to mention never seeing a cactus or sipping a drink on a sandy beach during a Santa Ana.

Wilderness
Man, it seems like you might as well be in back country! That’s a lot of falls. Ouch. But the wide open spaces are restful on the eyes.

Colorful
The building color scheme seems to show Nordic influence. Nice contrast to greys and white. I wonder whose idea it was to use the q in the spelling of the words. Maybe there is a twist to the sound that kept them from just going with k? There is a sound in Farsi that is sometimes written with a q or a g. We don’t have an analogous sound in English so no letter is going to get it across accurately.

Greenlandic language
See today's entry. This language is pretty strange, it's not totallly Inuit but derived from Inuit. They string words together to make a thought and the resulting word is really long.

Wonderful photos
I love following your travels. Julie

What an adventure!
You are so adventurous, Sue! I am loving the blog and photos. Greenland wasn't on our to-do list, but it is intriguing. Here, we are hearing a lot about the accelerating loss of ice, and the rising seas and possible destruction. I'll be interested in what you learn while you are there.
