Hi everyone, I have been missing for a while (anyone notice??). Things have been crazy lately, I wich I could tell you all about it, but I canâ€™t for now, maybe someday though, very interesting stuff.

Anyhow, I am away on another business trip to a place I always have wanted to go, Reykjavik, Iceland. Unfortunatly it is raining like hell, which is going to reduce the things I wanted to do like swim in the Blue Lagoon. I am here until Friday morning so I hope to get in as much as I can.

Take care

mikeinie

As posted, I was on a business trip to Iceland, even though the second day was forecasted to be very heavy rain, with high winds, it turned out to be sunny (with high winds). I took in a tour of an area called the ‘Golden Circle’ which takes you though some Lava fields to a Glacier waterfall, and then to Geyser on the way back. It was fabulous. What a unique and wonder country. The water is so pure they add nothing at all to it, all their electricity is geothermal and completely pollution free. All of their hot water is provided by the government again heated by the steam that comes from the ground. It is an expensive place, but a ‘must see before you die’ kind of place.

here are a few pics:

Wonderful place Mike, I so hope to get there one day and see it myself. I'm glad the weather cleared and you got a chance to get about.
