Hello Friends! 
   We are currently anticipating a volcanic eruption. Well, since Friday we've been on an "anytime now" or "maybe never" status. It basically means that experts can theorize what may happen. However, you just can't know until it actually happens. I hope that makes sense. l would also like to make a correction about the lava tube or corridor that I spoke of. It is not under the Blue Lagoon but also not far away either. It looks like the people of Grindavik have a long road ahead. Let's keep them in our thoughts and prayers. If you would like to donate money to the Icelandic Red Cross or to the Icelandic Search and Rescue teams, you'll find the links below. 
Thank you for listening.

Hello Friends!  
       Winter is coming! I'm excited about it!  Summer is my favorite season in Iceland, fall is a close second. Northern lights are shining brightly like a rainbow in the night sky. Halloween (Hrekkjavaka) is coming, and it has been growing in popularity every year people started observing it here. Thanksgiving (Þakkargjörð) is also observed in Iceland.  Not for the same reasons Americans have to be thankful for, but you will see turkey and stuffing and cranberry sauce available in Icelandic supermarkets the week leading up toThanksgiving and all the way through Christmas, for that matter. Also, you will see North American pumpkins (the orange ones) available for Halloween and Thanksgiving. They were non existent here until recent years. I've even seen the pumpkin pie filling in a can. If you find yourself in Iceland between now and December 25th this is what you have to look forward to. I hope to see you all here! 

Stay tuned!

  Hello Friends! 
                        In this latest episode of Museum Visits, I visited the Icelandic Phalloloigcal Museum.
                         It was founded in 1997 by Sigurdur Hjartason. His son Hjortur Gisli Sigurdsson now runs the museum. I visited this museum many years ago before it moved from Husavik way up north. It is now much bigger and better and has many new specimens. Now it's here in downtown Reykjavik situated in the midst of all types of shops and restaurants (and other museums) It only costs 2750 ISK or about $20 USD. It's well worth it. There's a gift shop for all the penis key chains and t shirts and such and a cafe that also serves BEER. It really was super interesting. I highly recommend paying them a visit. 

Have a look at their website

                        I'm talking about the volcano that just erupted today. I'm also talking about last year's trip to the volcano and the adventure that it was. (There were three eruptions in as many years)
 I also discuss ways to stay safe out there. How I made it out there and back unscathed. 
    If you're thinking about hiking to the volcano, be prepared. I can't stress that enough. 

Feel free to reach out to me with all your questions.

First episode in the "Museum Visits" series. A short review on this "living Museum" just 10 minutes from downtown Reykjavik.  This one is a definite must see. A complete  view of what life was like in the 18 and early 1900s. There were moments when I felt like I was back in those times! You can be there in 10 minutes by car or 20 by bus. (from downtown) Enjoy!
