Does It Hurt When A Kidney Stone Is Stuck?
3:00 clock in the morning, the alarm clock is on time. We torture, a by one, from the bed to the bathroom and get ready. The remaining pieces of laundry, various stuffed animals and pillows and toiletries away in the suitcases, and it will become once again today the kettle to make tea of coffee and used. After the cases are finished, we put them off in the foyer of the hotel and pack our luggage together, now quickly review the travel documents and we're going down to wait for the taxi. As always on time we will be picked up and taken to the BSI bus terminal. When packing the station wagon we realize how much baggage we carry around with us. Arriving at the bus terminal
, it only takes a few minutes, until the first Flybus is ready for boarding. We are driving there and go at 4:45 in, over Hafnarfjordur, where two more Passagire enter, it goes to the airport Keflavik. Also, as always, it rains on the way to the airport, really funny. We try to find out whether they are arguably the trolls who cry because we're going home. Beate says, however, that she shed tears of joy because they finally get rid of us.
At the airport we were more self-service terminals for check-in than last year and we had to give up after 10 minutes our boarding passes and luggage labels in the hands of the case.
In the airport we bought then a few little things and headed then towards the gate. With about 10 minutes Delay lifted from the machine in the direction of Frankfurt. The flight would take a change in the route, only three hours. Contrary to the intended route, on the southern tip of Norway over, the flight was now more towards the UK and brought us a large piece of Scotland. In between, we went through a bad-weather field and the pilot climbed more than 1,000 meters above an d again changed course, but it bounced a little stronger than usual durhc this detour, we lost about 10 minutes and were indeed more than 20 minutes before the scheduled arrival on the flight to Frankfurt, but apparently just was not room for us and the pilot had to fly two large circles before the landing attaches. In the pouring rain, we landed safely on German soil, and then picked up our luggage. The irradiated children than they durhc saw the door at the passport control and the great grandmother and her mother were to hold any more. They were able to take her mother home immediately. We then picked our car from the parking garage and also drove home.

Everyday life has us back. The laundry pile is much higher than the mountain post that has accumulated, but we also create.
A look at our credit card bill shows us the impact of financial crisis for the Icelandic economy. Last year in October we received an average of 86 crowns to the euro, this year the average was at 223 kroner. This means for us that we have made a relatively cheap holiday, for Icelandic companies in which we have purchased and used, which is however less positive.

Clipper Oil For Air Gun
Our last day was a very sunny day. While it was very cold at night, in the morning hence the scattering service drove through the streets and the rain of the night fell in the mountains as snow, which was clearly visible on the other side of the fjord.
After a very warm and hearty breakfast we boarded the Bus to Reykjavik. In the city showed the thermometer 2 degrees to plus, at the Blue Lagoon, the air was only 0 degrees, the water was 37-45 degrees. We stopped at about 2 hours in the water and then refreshed ourselves in the cafeteria. Back at the hotel, we provided the wet bathing suits and went on to do in the city at the last minute shopping. We were actually still the desired long gloves for the winter and the children also had no problems spending the rest of pocket money.
The last portion of Icelandic lamb for this year, we really enjoyed the urine in the pot above Pannan.
the rest of the evening was spent to pack their bags, except for Sebastian, who has the game of the Icelandic national team against Macedonia viewed in the lobby. Because of our return flight tomorrow, and the resulting very short night, we had to do without, unfortunately, on a visit to the stadium. The Icelanders won the game 1-0 and have given it the red lantern in the group.

Unpainted Wooden Blocks
Today we launched the second attempt, the Golden Circle on your own with a rental car to drive. 8:15 Against Clock we got our little "Nothing is impossible" to hire from the auto and started after a short stop at the hotel in the south. This time we took the turnoff to Nesjavellir because we wanted to pass by the big power plant. Somehow, but has anything changed in the street guide and we saw only a few columns of smoke from a distance. Since it had become very cold at night and we came in slightly on the road slides, we gave up the power station and continued our journey towards Thingvellir. There we took a walk on the historic ground between Iceland and searched the rugged lava rock to trolls. After this first stop we drove towards Geysirgebiet, we thought, and came here a little off course. After about 30 km gravel road with sometimes breakneck combinations of hills and curves, we came back on a paved road, and laid the remaining kilometers. At noon we had the Geysirgebiet for ourselves to and saw some spectacular eruptions of the bubbling, we had seen on the directions even be lucky to Strokkur shortly after the geyser in action. The geyser we had been able to do for now. climbed after a short tour of the souvenir shop, we back our Toyota and drove the short distance to Gullfoss. Of course there was the first goal of the restaurant with the best lamb soup Islands. Strengthened so we began the descent to the waterfall. Meanwhile the sun broke through the clouds and we saw some rainbows over the falls, which we tried with our cameras to be recorded. In between the wind blew in unas direction and we had already afraid that it was a mistake to leave the rain pants in the car, it was not as bad as the wind blew and ran after something in the other direction. So we were relatively dry up again in the parking lot. Now it was back in the direction selfoss on the ring road. Sebastian played with the road map in hand to guide us and piloted by almost Kerid at the volcano, but we saw at the last moment and still were able to make a short photo stop.
The next goal was Hveragerdi Eden was where the regret of all the soft ice cream machine is already dismantled for cleaning. The children are still brought the long awaited ice and we went through the Greenhouse. Suddenly we heard, as it began to rain heavily and decided to cut short the stay, because we still had the Hellisheidi before us. That this was a good idea, we saw when we were almost at the top and the rain went on more and more snow. On the plateau was already a lot of snow on the road and the snow was so strong that sometimes the oncoming vehicles until very late recognized. Fortunately, the descent from the plateau towards Reykajvik fairly uniform and not very steep, so we slowly but surely down a bit arrived. The 15% slope towards Hveragerdi we had not done well, just as the climb to fourth Hellisheidi Hour later.
In Reykjavik we sold Beate and the luggage in the hotel and drove to Hertz. After the car was passed, the walk was to the hotel where we were surprised by the onset of rain. have
The evening we ate Esse deleted for now, because everyone was still tired in the lamb soup Gullfosscafe, we then have a Skyr and some pastries and looked at the pictures of the day.
As the end of our journey, we have for today, booked our last day, not even a trip to the Blue Lagoon. Then we come once more into the city is perhaps a little shopping.

Monster Energy Drink Warehouse Corona Ca
up half-six, all complain (as always) but finally we have eight clock at the airport in Reykjavik are. The taxi is waiting outside the hotel 15 minutes earlier. Today we know the Dash 8 from the inside, slightly smaller than the Fokker 50 and only 37 seats. In the Westman Islands, it is somewhat cooler than in Reykjavik and windy with light rain. We hope that the machine is not shaken up too much. Unfortunately, these hopes come true and it does not surprise a few times pretty hard, but the pilot, everything under control and we land safely on Heimaey. At the airport is expected to ourselves, and we will work with the bus drove into the city. In the bakery where our "tour guide" Ruth is working, we discuss the further course of the day, her husband drives us then by bus again through the city and shows us all the important points. On the way he reports to us right at the natural history and the folklore museum. Both have been closed but will be opened specially for us. With the Natural History Museum we begin our exploration trip on your own. In the time comes to the museum staff, we find that the ground floor of the building housed the fire department and should also note that for a community there with a little over 4,000 inhabitants are busy. The kids are a little sad, because they finally believe that we will probably not live in October puffins to face, as have long been on the ocean and only come to the next breeding season back on land. Then we will open the museum and we can look at the many exhibits in peace. All the birds that exist in the Westman Islands and Iceland get, we see, unfortunately, only stuffed but presents very interesting. We also find prepared fish, seals, polar foxes and other animals. Then there is a Aquqrium with many fish that are available around Iceland, but this time alive.
Then the absolute surprise, the museum staff comes with a box after him opens, we actually see a few old laminate puffins in full life size in front of us, we had not expected. The animal was too weak to fly out to sea with its kind and will be nursed in the museum. The children are happy and may even take the little creature in his hand. Unfortunately, they must then give him however, and he comes back in his crate. Shortly after that comes a three-month-old guillemot to light that each finger, which one reaches out her first considers a bill comes from the edible. Again, this bird is reared by hand here, since he fell from his rock and was released at the Natural History Museum. Here, by the way measure examined in the summer, the young puffins and weighed, which are collected by the islanders when they fly irritated by the lights in the city and find their way any more.
We say goodbye from the Natural History Museum and go on with many new and interesting experiences in the local museum. There we are greeted warmly and are walking through the impressive collection of objects of all kinds from the early days until today Heimaeys a pet that is happy to answer all our questions. Time and again we see something new and the time flies by.
Next, we make our way to the "new lava" which comes from the volcanic eruption of 1973. We see signs with street names Note and stones on buildings that are up to 40 meters high partially covered with lava. from here above to get a glimpse of how bad this has getraoffen volcanic eruption the city.
after short 12 clock at noon, we meet in the city in the bakeries in the Ruth and take the opportunity to work with us was a hot drink and some strengthening of the delicacies that are produced there and sold. improved by 13 clock opens next door to the souvenir shop in the Beate sweater Puffinmuster has seen, behind which it is already for two Jaher ago. Unfortunately, we have overlooked, however, that the business in the winter is open only three days a week and is closed today actually. Here, too, helps Ruth like us, and calls the owner at home. Five minutes later, closes this then your charge to us and we can buy. To some clothes and souvenirs abundant and easily many crowns, we make our way to the cinema, where today a 14 clock, a film about the volcanic eruption of 1973, on Surtsey, puffins, and more men running from the West. It is probably unnecessary to mention that in amending the program plan, especially for us, the version played in German. After the film, which takes about an hour, we go back to the bakery to do from there rests with her husband and one-half hour tour of the principal objectives of the island, Of course, with detailed explanations of Ruth. At the end of the tour are the two-five minutes before departure set up at the airport.
Thanks for a great trip to Ruth, her husband and all others that we have made the stay as comfortable on Heimaey. We will come back soon.
The return flight was down to a small disturbance very quiet.
Movies With Foot Scenes
A positive surprise this morning took a look at the sky. Predicted rain is yet to see anything, there are even blue areas between the clouds. Our walk to city park and domestic animals So nothing stands in your way. The children ask it all the time if we go, when it rains.
So we went, a little tired but cheerful going on. Once in the city park, we realized that the cafe has now closed in the winter generally. The water areas were populated with all manner of ducks and geese, and although most plants were already flowering, there was much to see. After walking through the park we went to the zoo of domestic animals and visited each exhibit. On Nerzgehege this time we had for the first time the chance to see the same both animals and even building a nest to be there. In Falk enclosure and the reindeer, unfortunately no one was home. Nevertheless, the Frute especially the children on a variety of animals. After a snack in the cafeteria, we went on towards the great family park with playground. The raft on the lake was dismantled for the winter, so we were spared a concern. After the children had abated somewhat, we joined the "home" to. This was interrupted every few minutes from the question of the planned for today in pool. So in the hotel were the swimsuits packed and we went again into Laugardalur where we plunged into the water for an hour. Then the food in the restaurant tasted twice as good.

Hero Patio Furniture Ontario
It was a hot party night opposite our room. Either has rented the former over the Frauenfitnesstudio Badhusid a nightclub or celebrated a wild house party. The whole night was musical, and numerous cars and motorcycles drove up loud and gone, many with loud howling engine and squealing tires. It was worst between 1:30 and about 3:00 clock and if the anarchists had the windows open or herumgrölten on the Roof, only returned at 4:00 clock slowly tranquility. On a good night was not the question. We were happy that the children seem to have mitgekriegt not much and slept. Beatrice was in between so annoyed that she sat in the hallway outside our room in a chair in the morning they had then no Lust for breakfast because we were only three.
Well, we survived it but the next time that Björk is probably not the first choice, especially since we might want to make us want more and more stations are based in the north.

Saturday Flohmarkttag in Reykjavik. We had set the alarm clock only at half past seven, but had previously been monitored. After breakfast we went back on the beach ran along towards flea market. Again, the huge construction site attracts our attention. Incredibly, when you see how fast this city is growing and that the width and height. At the flea market, we have not found anything that would have raised us right and the cafeteria was so full that we decided to drink coffee in the city. We investigate this from a bakery in the town of Lake N ähe Tjörnin, before we were to get into the tourist information to information material and at City Hall, there have Iceland on the model tracked the ways that we have gone in recent days and flown. After lunch with cake and coffee or cocoa, we set off towards the main road, but not to make it without stopping in various souvenir and book shops. Due to the many people who came to meet us and a girl who was sitting on the plane yesterday and was knitting, Desirée suddenly the idea to try this out and to get such a great sweater. On the way to the Hall Grimm church we visited, therefore the business of the Association, and bought Handknitting Icelandic sheep wool. After visiting the church, which completely in the moment of the tower for renovation scaffolding is, then suddenly came the question of knitting needles, because Desiree could not expect their first-knitted scarf to wear. No idea who or how, but suddenly mentioned any of us Asian chopsticks. When we wanted passed a Chinese restaurant but no one inside and the organization. Fortunately, there were still traveling an Asian supermarket. Desirée now sitting there in bed, knitting furiously to herself. The grandmother may then absorb all the lost quarter SYtunde mesh again, because the expectation is greater on the scarf as the patience for knitting and have just far too hastily and carelessly "gehuddelt" is. For a start, but it makes the whole good.
A request for data for the pedigree by e-mail remained at home, unfortunately, quite unsuccessfully. Sebastian has therefore decided to look in the lobby, the Netherlands World Cup qualifier against Iceland.
remains to mention that we for dinner back in the pot above Pannan urine were children and both have decided on the grilled lamb. Mmmhhh ....
How Bad Is Cockaine On Your Gums?
Today they said goodbye to Akureyri. The departure from our hotel was not very difficult, because the service was very bad there. The room was cleaned not once, except that new towels were brought and emptied the Recycle Bin was, nothing happened. Even the beds we have made ourselves. Despite all the good experiences and the many friendships that have brought the stays in the CER worldwide in the last 6 years, we will book the Hotel Kea in Akureyri, not anymore.
After breakfast we boarded our taxi and let us bring to the airport. There we studied the arrival and departure times and were happy that there was good weather and we could expect a smooth ride. The whole process at the small airport with the little machine was particularly interesting for the kids, we knew that already. The Fokker 50 landed on time and shortly afterwards we were allowed to enter. Even at the start it was the first Ooh .., because you could see under the wing as the wheel is retracted. The first few minutes we saw on the fjord and Akureyry down and then we disappeared into the clouds, just a short time later and are staring shares the view of the landscape. No sooner had all your drinks, and lowered the nose of the plane again toward Earth. Shortly before reaching the airport in Reykjavik, the Fokker was then shaken properly as it from sea to land, flew the landing was time I checked and we were not even minutes later at the airport to wait for our luggage, which we opened ourselves towards taxi . In the hotel we were already expected and we were the same in the new room. Now had only still the case that we had left in front of Departure for Akureyri be taken out of the cellar and all swar together again.
After we had repacked the suitcase, we took in glorious weather for a walk to the beach and had the next unexpected sighting, only about 150 meters off the beach to swim for a few moments we saw a seal.
On the way back to the hotel Björk, the conversation turned to how some ancestors and kinship relations. Suddenly, the idea was born something similar to a family tree auzumalen to see the children where they come from. After dinner in the urine pot og Pannan we searched the internet for a freeware family tree creation and installed a program on the laptop. After the images were backed up, we looked at the part and could not stop. In no time were about 40 people entered and were 4 generations, at least by name, in the pedigree. Working with the program was so much fun and was so interesting that we almost could not stop. Shortly before 10, the lights went out but then after all.

Today was the big tour at Myvatn. That meant to get up early and breakfast at 7:00 clock. Your swimsuit and some snacks to eat and drink for the road course, we have also packed. Short after 8 clock we were at the tourist information and have watched as the inter-city buses are loaded and assembled at the passengers slowly in all directions around the island to drive.
As it was already after half past nine, we thought you had forgotten us and actually, it was. The local bus company had received no news that four tourists have booked the tour Myvatn. For the Icelanders, however, was not a problem. The staff of the Tourist Info, incidentally, a German, has just phoned and arranged a driver. It was not long before arrived with Siggi Siggi. However, it is true two Siggi came a drove us and the other explains it all. Siggi, the guide said even German and so the children could understand everything, he actually came only three days earlier returned from a vacation in Canada. Well it started then. When Siggi was told that we have made this trip without the children before, he started thinking about what new locations around the Myvatn he could show us, since we were only four, he could move to several points as usual, because the entry and exit of course does not last as long as when the bus is occupied by 40 or more passengers. He was correctly observed that it makes his job a lot more fun and he therefore did not care that he was called away from breakfast in the morning to drive four tourists through the area instead as planned to work in his stables.
The first stop was on the other side of the Eyjafjord of which we now know that it is at 65 km the longest in Iceland and has a width of up to 25 km. From this vantage point one could see the whole city. At the moment the weather was not as optimally but the rain was not too bad. Then it was accompanied with lots of information about the area and especially on the work of farmers and ranchers around here continue to Godafoss. case of the gods played a large role in the conversion to Christianity of the country involved. In the vicinity of the case was a man of his court, who at that time and the Gestzessprecher in the Assembly at the Althing was. This single man now had the task to decide whether changes Iceland to Christianity or not. After 24 hours under a sheepskin was the decision taken, and his speech to the Alting brought the country a very great change, he said that to believe in such a small country with so few people actually everyone in only one God. This decision was immediately taken in appropriate legislation and was also on sale now. Old customs and traditions we eating horse meat and the abandonment of children was spared by the law. In order to reaffirm its decision and to show the Icelanders, that he himself might do, he rode home and got his high perch, which were decorated as usual with any idols, and cast them into the stream. These bars were a bit more then in this waterfall, which has been the case since the gods called.
more stations were Dimmuborgir, the "black locks, a large area with some bizarre lava formations in which they, with a little imagination, can recogni all possible figures. Many go out here and look for the petrified trolls.
Skutustadagigar was the world's most pseudo craters on such a small area, our goal for the lunch break. Here is the Hotel Myvatn the delicate smoked trout eat and let us taste the homemade soup. The smokehouse was one of the goals we could have a look outside the normal stops, very interesting (and tasty).
The crater of Vilkans Viti (Hell) has Siggi, the driver suddenly started to throw snowballs at the kids. This came just in time which, of course, in no time developed a real snowball fight.
the rieigen volcano Hverfjall with his 140-meter-deep crater and the crater rim, which has a circumference of a thousand meters, we saw us on the way home towards Akureyri, as there is a point which is slightly raised and good Weather permitting us an insight into the crater opening.
course, we have not seen before the volcano Krafla geothermal power plant and the same, we could soga go directly to the hole and look at the apparatus, which regulates the pressure of the steam in more detail. We certainly unthinkable, because in Germany the construction of the fences and walls are at such plants usually more expensive than the actual construction of the power plant.
do not forget to mention us, the high temperature region with its many bubbling mud pools Hverir vid Námafjall where we messed up the shoes quite a bit. It was almost embarrassing to get back on the bus and then the squeaky-clean hall of Myvatn entering lagoons. In this Äquvivalent to the Blue Lagoon in the south, we were able to relax for an hour, the hammer thing was that we had the whole lagoon just for us. When Siggi back in Akureyri, asked where he should stop us and said that we could choose this, of course, Sebastian was the idea that he might set us apart from the lagoon to swim again. This was, of course (unfortunately) not so we sneaked into the hotel with dirty shoes and decided the evening with a further visit to the restaurant Bautinn that we can recommend without reservation.
After an incredibly interesting and instructive Day we fell into bed, tired.
Thank you again here at Siggi Siggi and go for an exciting trip and a great atmosphere.

Comfortmaker Air Conditioner
Today we left it a little slower. We went only around half past eight for breakfast, and were the last to have left the restaurant. After that we went through the town to shopping center and took a look at the business. The way back, we have chosen the port around us look around. Back in the city center, we have let ourselves go well at the Cafe Blue Jug and selected from the fully stocked bar cake our favorites, which, given the choice was not easy. Following this coffee break, which equaled the amount of har lunch, we had to rest once more, the hotel was even in sight. About three clock afternoon, we then put up in the direction of swimming pool and enjoyed from the terrace outside the town church nor the views of the city and the bay. To the glorious sunshine at 8 degrees and the great view would now really only need to surface the whale in the bay. Of course, but we were really glad that this did not happen, because it means so well that he has found the way back to the open sea.
After the visit was still in the pool to Bautinn Evening meal and then we looked at the pictures in the hotel room in recent days. Since we had the next day the great Myvatn Tour in front of us, no one was angry that earlier went to bed.
Airplane Decorations For Baby Shower
Today again was a trip by bus to the plan, but this time not so long. The drive to Husavik takes on schedule, an hour and 15 minutes. Even the sight of our "bus", a 9-seater with a trailer for cargo and baggage, brought the children back to marvel. When she then realized that we were the only passengers who are entered in Akureyri, they could not believe it anymore. We drove then the 90 miles through without even hold only once. Unfortunately the weather was not as desired, until it rained all day long and short interruptions in Husavik was crying the sky. Now, flexibility was needed. Our first stop was a small bakery, we took a second breakfast with excellent baked goods. After that we had tried our luck at whale museum, which is actually closed in winter but opened today. Since the children had experienced in Akureyri at the tourist information that it is the animal from the city for a Bottlenose Whale, of course they were very eager to learn something about this being. Inside the museum was interested then, in particular through the many original skeletons, once awakened, and we also found the Bottlenose Whale. The time flew by and the rain was soon forgotten, and completely irrelevant. After we had seen everything and answered all questions about Wal for today were we were full of much new knowledge about these animals towards the exit, where of course the gift shop was targeted. Now for the children was of course the fumble release. What looks incredibly great and costs little scary in my pocket money? The decision was made only when the possibility of Waladoption was known. Since this is not cheap, however, we had the idea that we do not adopt for souvenirs and a whale. We have We then decided on a minke whale, which now has two aunts and two uncles. At this course, adoption is a picture of the "child" and a certificate. The amount to be paid for the adoption is, of course, must be donated to the Whale Museum. Now, however, there was a new problem, which was just as time consuming as the search for the perfect gift: What should the baby's name? No one remembered a fitting name. Beate had the idea that you could bastenl from the first two letters of our names one Walnamen. However, if one has six letters three times the e, this is again problematic. Desirée then had the idea of the whale for our dogs to name, it was then Sammy and Bobby from the "Sambo". The floats now so any where around Iceland in the North Atlantic, waiting for his baptism.
We had in the meantime talk to the staff of the museum, which comes from Stuttgart and therefore naturally speaks German. They then gave us a phone call with the owner of the penis museum out and made an appointment. We were able to walk 15 minutes later, two doors down and look at one of the most unusual collection in the world. Thus we have the total rainy day in Husavik dry and very educational spending and could finish our visit there in the gas station with a small snack. Finally our bus came also over time, this time without a trailer, and brought us back non-stop, back to Akureyri. There, the weather had changed a lot for the better.
Now we were all very excited about the Christmas House, which we have experienced in the morning. After looking at the map we had to find that this house is located 10 km outside the city and for such a march tonight had no more desire, so we decided to take a taxi. Arriving at the Christmas House, at first we thought we would be wrong, because according to the description in the brochure we were expecting at least two times as large building. Given the size of the house came the question of the taxi driver whether he should wait, very convenient, unfortunately ran the clock in a taxi faster than us in the Christmas House and so this visit developed into a very expensive trip, which ended after just an hour back at the hotel.
We then visited the supermarket again and spent the rest of the evening by reviewing the images taken during the day and the writing of the diaries.
Best Shear Foundation
After a relatively quick breakfast, we left ourselves a taxi to bring BSI terminal to take the bus to Akureyri. Previously, we had already disposed of some of our luggage in the hotel basement and placed the rest in the lobby. Just in time clock at 8:00 we stood in front of the still closed Ticket counter. Upon request, we were told that the switch would actually be open already, but the employees stuck in morning rush hour, but certainly coming soon. Ca. 15 minutes later it was ready and we boarded the bus just before departure. Somewhat puzzled, we saw the ad on the bus, the temperature was 22 degrees, which could not be. But when the bus driver, after all the luggage stowed away and the tickets were checked, gets rid of its various jackets and suddenly had the bright orange short-sleeved Hawaiian shirt in front of us, we also believed the ad. The record, while the ride was fabulous 36 degrees and the discarded clothes of the Passengers blew at times the storage compartments above the seats. We were definitely glad we had stowed our suitcases in the Iceland sweater.
in the pouring rain, tortured the driver out of town due to traffic. The further we Reykjavik behind us the better, the weather and you could look around. The first highlight of the trip was the tunnel under the fjord passes. This part of the ring road has always something adventurous, a tunnel of this kind would be unthinkable in Germany and each ADAC testers would be horrified. Without the civilized way in which the (most) Icelanders would have also blocked this route often. Shortly after the tunnel we passed the turnoff to Akranes and from here it was really rural. The Ansieldungen consisted only of scattered farms. The nearest major town was Borganes, here the bus stopped to let passengers from and to-enter and. Also were unloaded various "packages". Most of the Gepäckräune was on this trip full of boxes in which ham was packaged in order, most gas stations and some school canteens in which we were supplied. Besides diverse pieces of furniture and major purchases of bus drivers transported the last stretch of the journey a cooling container with blood for the hospital in Akureyri. Unbelievable but true, the absence of public buses in Iceland, would be much more expensive than it already has and for many residents of remote areas would be more difficult to cope with daily life. These buses are not only people but also an important means of transportation of the supplies of the so-called things of everyday use. The children looked at every stop, something new that they could bring the buses back home in no context and could not imagine.
The whole trip went very quiet and despite, at times, very strong winds without incident. The driver had us do a barbecue though, and the stewardess with the cocktails, we are still waiting but he has done his job perfectly.
had at the hotel in Akureyri we were already expected and the check took less than two minutes. After we saw our room we were all flabbergasted something with such a luxurious inn, no one had expected. We got a huge room with very large bathroom in the addition to the Doppelkbett was a wide bed, which was already prepared for the children. Simply terrific. Made within a short time we had set up domestic and went to first on a walk. We strolled along the main shopping street and then went for a mountain to climb well above the Protestant church, which was unfortunately too. As we saw above from there across the bay, Beate began to suddenly call and was getting more excited. She had seen actually show up in the bay a whale. The rest of us could believe it at first but as the animal the next time came up to breathe, Desirée has seen it. In the next breath we managed to catch men also have a look, but it should have been the last. We are then immediately down the hill towards the road and over to the beach. Meanwhile, two cars were also held and a further pedestrian crossing the street. Sorry, read to see the whale no more and we went back towards the city. Since we were heated by the Hawaiian climate of our Chauffeurs are still pretty, we had decided not to walk on our thick jumpers and were by the wind, which is slowly but surely towards hurricane developed pretty cool. In addition, the wind tossed the waves always stronger on the beach, so we had to hurry to dry yet again to reach the city. There, we warmed up in a souvenir shop on the right first, of course, took the children to play a part in their crowns exchanged holiday pay to overdo. When we all had again stopped to shake, we were on our way to the restaurant Bautinn to the day to finish with a pizza.

Oily Hair After Keratin
Dorota at the reception we had yesterday warned, the weather forecast predicted rain for today. The first view from the window showed us that the Icelandic weather but sometimes rely on. It did everything but does not look bad, it dripped so easy to himself and we, as a storm-tested Iceland travelers, we did not worry. After a somewhat shorter breakfast, we went by taxi to the Hertz car rental and picked up our set of wheels for today. Then again briefly in the hotel, packed the rain gear and some food and hot tea and then we were off in the direction of ring road (this time without trial). Shortly after Reykjavik we saw on the scoreboard of the Road Traffic Authority that the temperature on the Hellisheidi at 1 degree plus was, so really not an issue. We then took The road to Nesjavellir in order to drive past the power plant and since then it hit us pretty hard. The road was smooth as glass partially covered in snow and in some places, but because it was raining and the outside temperature range was clearly positive, we were naturally a bit slower, more. When we are suddenly a bus of Iceland Excoursions with a sign "Golden Cicle" entgegenkam behind the windshield, we knew suddenly two things: the individual came to be seen vehicle lane, which we have so far been followed by a bus, and secondly, if the turn around, we create the gradient on the feeds we just do not ever. Ebtschlossen why we emphasize the detour via Nesjavellir and back down on the ring road. On the next pitch we were told that a Toyota Yaris is probably not the right vehicle for winter cross-country trips in Iceland. Without further ado, we are flexible, but we decided to stay in the lowlands and drive towards Reykjanes. We're looking at the map a route for Porlakshöfen towards Hafnarfjördur and then wanted to go over Njardvik, Sandgerdi and Grindavik. In Porlakshöfen we arrived by ferry at the same time of the Westman Islands. We have looked on the Anlegemannöver and unloading. We had to stay in the car, however, because otherwise we would have blown the wind into the sea. The rain had become a downpour and the wind was near gale force, the rains were moving almost horizontally. Shortly after we set off again, the rain stopped on command and we took a view point on the beach targeting. Once there, it immediately began to rain again. More than a few shots were not there. So we decided to proceed further. At the fork in the direction Krýsuvík stopped us then a sign that promised a job site with 5.3 km long, the road looked very bumpy and was littered with stones. Because the alternative would have been the rise to 1, we wanted to take the 5.3 km in the purchase and planned for a 20 minutes to the car not to demolish by stones swirled up. After about 15 kilometers, we asked ourselves slowly, when the 5.3 km are probably around. Meanwhile, few questions were asked to sanitation, since the diversion came to a cafe, which was announced with a big sign just in time. When we two kilometers, which were shown on the plate and behind us had a few summer homes and were but two rusty corrugated iron sheds were only see a big house, broke out, at least in part, panic. Beate then made their way to the house where we had seen from a distance an older woman. With Toyota we had not dared to take the last piece, because the snow there was pretty high on the driveway. After almost seemingly endless time, now should the weather had again become the perfect storm and it was very hard to recognize the surroundings, was Beatrice, visibly relieved to back with the message that we turn around and the "5.3" km drive back, as the so-called road actually always looks like and if we continue to be rather worse. An invitation to all of us had coffee, Beate then unfortunately have to decline with thanks, so we still had a chance to come from this area back on a normal street.
We want here to thank you for the invitation, with the extended family of which we unfortunately do not even know the name, thanks to coffee and cake and have now decided tonight that we determined there go there again and then bring the cake itself. The fact that we do not rent Yaris understand is pretty self
When we finally "solid ground" were under the wheels, we took the road back towards Reykjavik and drove to the Perlan. Well-needless to say, that was temporarily thawed all the snow on and off the streets, it was just wet. In the Perlan we visited the Saga Museum and strengthened ourselves with a hot coffee in the cafeteria. The children finally gave out its first crown and we drove back to the hotel. When we had our luggage in the room, we went to Hertz and returned the car. On the walk back we saw the Icelandic wind, the rain lashing the one in the face of its unpleasant side. But we were rewarded with a delicious dinner in the hotel restaurant.
Since the trip is due the next morning to Akureyri, we had yet to pack her bags and decided also, the rest of the evening comfortably spend in bed.
So it was then probably nothing with "Golden Circle" but we still had an exciting day and new friends in Iceland.
Songs About Beach Vacation
planned, we had breakfast today cozy and then packed our swimsuits. As at 11.20 Clock, no bus was there to drive us to the Blue Lagoon, we asked the staff at the reception Baim bus operators to call. Apparently an employee had our reservations do not apply to the pick up list, so we were because we were the only ones from our hotel, not picked up. That's happened to us here, in all the years that we come to Iceland, so far only once. Without further ado, we have the swimming trip postponed by two hours. This time we took a walk along the beach promenade. It was beautiful weather today with sunshine. The temperature was all day at -1 to 0 degrees. On our walk we got a sneak preview of the construction in the city. One can hardly imagine as this city in the 6 years that we come here is now grown. Yesterday on the drive from the airport to Reykjavik, we asked ourselves, who will probably all move into the many new buildings and houses under construction. It is unlikely to occur at what pace this whole city.
Back at the hotel we had to not wait until our bus arrived and just over half an hour later we were on target. Construction works, which were last year still in progress, are of course far from complete. The showers are all finished and the new restaurant is in operation. The snack bar is now on the former restaurant and the new wing, there is a large Viewing deck, which can be reached from inside. Here is a magnificent view over the whole lagoon and beyond. We have endured broken in the 30 to 42 degrees warm water, a few visits to the steam room or sauna for almost three hours. The air temperature was around freezing, an almost too hot before. At 18:00 clock we took the bus back to the hotel where we ate in the restaurant for dinner.
From the warm water and the lush dinner geschlaucht properly, no one had any great desire that many, in the course of the day made to see pictures and we were relatively early in the bed to the Golden Circle, which is tomorrow expected to be fit. At 8:30 we get the clock ordered car and make our way to visit the three standard objectives of a trip to Iceland, Gullfoss, Geysir and Thingvellir.

Cups Ordered With Sayings
Today we go. After the experience with the last two trips to the airport, we have this time set the alarm clock earlier and set off at 8:00 clock already. Of course this time there was no traffic jam and we were early on in Frankfurt. We then considered something of Terminal 2, as it was last time so converted large.
are now on the ground floor the car rentals and the "Welcome Bar" is no more. Then a new restaurant opened, in which the service is just as bad as before. Shortly after 11:00
clock was the switch of Icelandair already occupied and we were able very early to give up our bags. We wanted to look at the construction site of the ICE_Bahnhof and went by train to Terminal 1. There, everything was so crowded and too hot that we ran the trip fail to train and are quickly driven to Terminal 2. There we have the security controls put behind us and watched our machine on landing. Now it could not last much longer.
When we had taken our seats, we were very happily surprised, because the conversion was done on the new Entertainmetsystem in our machine already. For every position there is an interactive screen with lots of info, music and movies. A great toy.
With about 15 minutes Vespätung has lifted the machine and then the second surprise came with the meal. Again, the Icelandair has again reached new heights.
After a quiet flight over almost continuous cloud cover, they suddenly broke up and the first impression of Iceland was just white. We could not believe it but the whole island was covered with snow and the closer we came to was such a beautiful country to the weather. We have our vielöen travel to Iceland has not seen such an approach. Simply fantastic, even the Blue Lagoon was seen very clearly. We landed right on time are
at 15:30 clock time. The
Ride with the Flybus was great, blue sea, blue skies, sunshine and snow-covered landscape - just breathtaking.
we anticipated, but were all pretty tired and we sat down, after the purchase of different little things, cozy restaurant and ordered the Soup and Salad. Since there was another surprise today, Sebastian could not be deterred from ordering the lamb. After an error the operation he ekam his food a little later than we, but there has been an extra large portion, and for all after another ice cream to it.
Then we were really ready and have well saturated into bed.

were of course once again, only the fall break in question, which this year is a holiday, the 3.10. already begin Friday. This was very well with our schedule and we decided the children on Thursday to pick up after school. Since we wanted
show this time more of the country and people, and of course also see themselves, we have also planned to stay in Akureyri. Many days on the hotel and not too much to benefit from a favorable price, we had to calculate this time with more days because we wanted to Akureyri-Tripp in the Lay middle of our stay. When researching the trip dates, we decided that we will remain 12 days in Iceland.
The flight was made quickly and with our hotel, we, as always, no problems. The team of Björk us quickly to reserve the room and confirmed. Then there was still the only book domestic air travel and we want the framework. was
A brief moment of shock, it then a few weeks later as an employee of the Icelandair phoned us and told us that the return flight is directly removed from Keflavik to Frankfurt from the flight plan. We had the opportunity to fly on the same day via Copenhagen or stay at one days shorten or lengthen it. As Beatrice is a keen aviator so the flight to Copenhagen was obviously not in question. Two-offs and landings in one day they would join in any case. The decision was pretty clear, of course, we stay a day longer and arrive until 16 back. We now only had to teach the people in the hotel. But even here there was again no problem.
ie, that this is probably our longest stay.
King Generator How To Check Stator
early morning, actually it was at this last visit in 2007, we decided this time again in the autumn holidays with the grandchildren to fly to Iceland.
The enthusiasm with which the children were here in the matter, which, for us, often unexpected, they put the interests of the day, we were surprised again and again. We could see the anticipation in their eyes, literally. Nothing was boring, no bus ride and not walk too long, even, by German standards, very small domestic animals aroused enthusiasm.
Time and again we heard that one here or there would have to necessarily go back there.
Even after the trip, the two talked again about the many different experiences during the eight-day stay.
Our decision was therefore fixed quickly and the children would even have agreed with a supplement because the fares were much higher this time last year without the applicable anniversary offers.
