"what a beautiful lady..."
So, I'm okay. Everyone I know is okay. However something happened to a member of my family. She's okay, but she very nearly wasn't. I'm not trying to be cryptic or anything, I just....she was fairly brutally attacked. She is okay, and she's a strong woman and I think she's okay mentally too. But it very easily could not have been.

Trip Update: Notes from the Plane
@tomfromhr
But I will be back. In ways Iceland felt like home. Next time I'll go back in the winter, I think. Reyk would be incredibly beautiful.

Descending into Halifax now. It's just setting in that I won't see Iceland again now for at least a year or so. Makes me very sad, honestly.

Trip Update: Last Bits from Iceland
@tomfromhr
Waiting in the airport with tea. Really gonna miss this place. Wish there was a big sign that said "breath it in, last time outside."

Love the look and ads of the brand 66 North. Wanna buy a coat, but more than a bit expensive.

Back at the hostel. VERY tired. Thinking of just taking the night off, finding a quiet cafe.

Tried to jump on the Icelandic President's summer house's wifi in Thingvellir. Password protected! Grr.

Just filled up my water bottle and drank from a spring. Dasani's got nothing on Iceland.

Trip Update: Pics from Fredericton, Halifax and Iceland
Okay, so my room has no net in Reyk, so only a few coming up from now on, and no videos til I get back. Takes a while to upload, but I really want to share what I've been doing. Iceland is absolutely stunning, and these pictures don't capture it at all. But I tried.

Trip Updates: Draft Tweets from Iceland, Day 2
@tomfromhr
There's a trend here not to be as blunt about some things. A big important exhibit at the Culture House is behind a nondescript door.

A cute/friendly hot dog vendor informed me that the Icelandic word for apple sounds like orange, then made several bad puns. Love this place

Impressions of Iceland so far; friendly and funny people, good coffee and no free wifi. The last one's a dealbreaker, Keflavik.

Even out the window at the security checkpoint you can see so very far. Amazing.
