Damn, Tif - I am only slightly jealous. By all reports Iceland is amazing.

Hey tif..I've been and its probably my favourite place in the entire world tbh..Its like a whole other world and feels like your on another planet due to the landscape
Are you going to the capital Reykjavik???
I went about 10yrs ago now..It has awesome clubs,nightlife but is very expensive..
The one place you really have to go to is the Blue Lagoon..which is out in the middle of the volcanic landscape (taxi's will take you there from the city)
Its a MUST!!!! <google it if you've not heard of it before>
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

I remember saying here long time ago the whole of Scandinavia is damn expensive. Beautiful but expensive and Iceland isn't an exception. I know as I live in this damned Scandinavian region of the world. Not that I actually would move anywhere else if I could..
I've been in Iceland once but I was about 5 at the time so can't remember much. Things "might" have changed over the past ~30 years.

Would love to go there again just to experience the totally different atmosphere to anything else I've ever visited now when I actually understand a bit about something.

Thanks, fellas. Someone told me that the USD is doing well vs the Krona since they had their whole financial meltdown so maybe that will take some of the sticker shock out of the whole experience.
Pokey, we will be in Reykjavik and I'll google Blue Lagoon right now. Thanks!

Santa lives in Lapland in Northern Finland, not Iceland and especially NOT (anymore) in North Pole like the Americans tend to believe.
