Iceland day 5 - Obligatory day in Reykjavik, the most northern capital city in the world. We spent the day eating, wandering the streets, souvenir shopping, and visiting churches, museums, concert halls, and cemeteries.
I suppose that I shouldn't say obligatory, as I actually find myself half in love with Reykjavik. Even with the semi-co…

Great monkey story. Glad you got your banana back. Watch out for Marberg virus. Temples are awesome and they remind me of the 13th century church that dr B and I were married in and my mother classically said"nice church but I do think it could use a little work" An American abroad

Mike,Mike, Mike, guess what day it is? Too bad you couldn't get camels as tame as the one on the "Hump Day" commercials. So glad you all had a safe, great, trip. Chrissy - looking forward to seeing you in Hawaii. Can't duplicate your Jordan experience but I do live in the dry area of Oahu.

Native Hawaiians actually performed human sacrifices. Based on reading some history - from about the mid 1700s to 1870, they were probably still doing it during part of the 18th Century - perhaps later. Need to appease the volcano gods...

Looks like you're having a fantastic time! Great pics. I err on the side of caution. Please keep in mind during your travels. JORDAN - Exercise a high degree of caution There is no nationwide advisory in effect for Jordan. However, you should exercise a high degree of caution due to civil unrest and demonstrations.
