Oh yes, we are back from Iceland
Iceland II, complete. In a way I think I got Iceland out of my system. I don't feel the frantic urgency to return as soon as possible, but if the opportunity arises, I will definitely go again. Perhaps for another season. We've done fall; winter, check; maybe summer next time.

First day of our second month in Iceland
Freezing rain, sleet, and prevailing headwind. Pretty comfortable; far better than rain and 75 kmh gusts.
Two days in Reykjavík
We took our bikes out unloaded for some sightseeing (the harbour, Hallgrímskirkja, and Einar Jónsonn museum), then discovered that the water slide at Laugardalslaug is for grownups. Laugardalslaug is officially the best value in town, after the free walking tour of course.

Chapter 4 nearly killed me. That was declensions. It was just too confusing and I thought I could slide over it with some lucky guesswork and it would sink in later. Guess what? NO! On my second attempt, which made my ears sweat, I barely managed to improve my previous 15% scores. Declensions! Sounds like a sexual disorder to me. “Or at least a gastro-intestinal one,” H.W. put in.
Iceland II preps
I'm getting mentally prepared to make Iceland 2.0 a reality. We're tentatively planning to go again in early autumn this year.

I may not make a blog post every day, but at least I Insta.
