Arrival in Iceland (Thurs 7/29)

Today we flew to Iceland! It was sad to leave Freigericht, but we were excited for Iceland. Our flight was running a little late, and we arrived about 40 minutes later than we were supposed to. Then we spent a while trying to get Icelandic Krona.

Once we left security, we quickly found our taxi driver and began the task of trying to fit all of our luggage into his car. It was a challenge and he was about to call another taxi, but we got it all to fit by putting one of our big suitcases stretched across the back seat on the laps of the people in the back. It was a tight fit, but it worked!


When we arrived at the house we are renting, we were shown around by the owner. Then we headed out to walk around downtown Reykjavik and find dinner. We ate at a really cool hole-in-the-wall type local burger joint. Following dinner, James and my mom headed back to the house and my dad and I walked around a little more.
