Iceland:
Warm, easy to get
to, good value for money, friendly people...
None of the above. Although I may be a bit harsh
towards the Icelanders. I didn't meet too many.
They seem to stay indoors, or possibly they've
all emigrated to Spain.

I
froze my nuts off, despite having good weather. Getting
there and back was an odyssey in itself. Don't talk
to me about how much it costs. 7 quid a pint, 25 quid
a dorm room sharing with 23 others for example. The
views were wild. The riding pretty good too. If I
went back it would be in a 4x4. It has a heater, you
can sleep in it and carry all your own food an booze.
My favourite day was watching a 35 ton humpback doing
tail stands off the northern town of Husavik. My least
favourite was watching 50 or so pilot whales being
slaughtered in Torshavn in the Faroe Islands. |

YouTube and I have embedded code to run them in TheBrightStuff.com.
If the movies don't work as expected, it is likely you
need to update your web browser with the latest plug-ins.
You may also need to "allow" the videos, if
you get a security warning. If you wish, just click on
