Iceland – The Journey Begins

I took off from Seattle Saturday afternoon on Icelandic Air for a 6.5 hour non-stop to Reykjavik.  The seats on the 757 seems a bit more roomy than on most economy seats.  Like most flights these days, the flight was packed full making staying in my window seat for the entire flight, a sure thing.  Funny thing for me was the fact that we were chasing daylight the entire length of the flight – no sleep for these beat eyes.   I met Daniel at the airport and found arrived at the hotel some 45 minutes later where I crashed for a deep sleep.

Late afternoon, I found myself roaming around the hotel lobby, taking in everything that there was to offer.  The hotel is directly adjacent to the Kef airport so the sights and sounds of airport operations at a small regional airfield were a treat for former military pilot.  Then there were these funny looking guys carved out of wood looking at your just about everywhere.  Carved to look like they were fresh out of ice, I just had to take a snap.
