After just some spot-sleeping here and there, we dropped our luggage and proceeded through the gate – the flight to Reykjavik was fine and we met Anna waiting for us.
She lives in a block of flats on the eastern outskirts of the capital, ½ hr bus journey to the centre. She took us for a quick tour of the harbour, then we went to the bank to exchange our Euros for Icelandic Kronas (they don’t deal with them in Italy) and to the information centre to stock-up on leaflets. After a spot of shopping for our dinner, we dedicated ourselves to planning our next few days and we came up with a few ideas. In spite of having taken a nap late this morning, I’m going to bed pretty tired – I think I’m gonna enjoy my first night in Iceland!
REYKJAVIK first impressions — quite a few blocks of flats, quite a few buildings in phase of construction and some run-down buildings. The town centre looks nice, but we only took a quick glimpse without really stopping to get the feeling of it.
WEATHER — drizzly, 10°C, tipically Scandinavian, people don’t seem to be bothered in the least by this kind of rain, wearing anything from rain jackets to t-shirts.
