For those of you who did not play along in real time, here is a link to my trip that I posted here. [Trip to Iceland!](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=519993) And herenew to the Dope) are my pics (some of them) from that trip. [Pics!](http://www.flickr.com/photos/19350879@N07/3595376857/in/photostream/) I will admit that I gave up on organizing them–I cannot get Flickr to let me SAVE my changes. Whatever… Enjoy! btw, the title phrase means “where are you going?” according to my translator. ---

W00T! First! Looks like a great trip, **rigs**. I bowled in a charity bowling tournament tonight. I bowled a 74, and got a strike. 7 days till vacation. ---

Wow, neat pics from Iceland, **Rigs**! Thanks for sharing with us and I second **GT** , you do look relaxed, a good thing. 🙂 Time to toddle to bed now, though … more in the am when I am caffeinated therefore less sleepy. 😛 ---

Great pics, **rigs**! Looks like it was a fun trip, but where’s the pic of Hans? Busy weekend for me, am hoping for a quieter week and a less hectic weekend to come. I could do with a rest but I have too much to do at home. Bah! ---

Then it shall be pool time. Tonight is men’s night at church. I have steaks marinatin’ away right now. Time for more caffiene and brekkies followed by purtification for runnin’ around town. Later Y’all! ---

Up and caffeinating here … might be a -tad- late to work today. Ah well, I’ll get there when I get there. I wanna dip in the Blue Lagoon! Ooops… I still gotta get a new swimming outfit. :eek: I’ll be back later on, when I’ve had a bit of brekkies and more caffeine. 😛 ---

I agree, the Blue Lagoon looks like it’s on another planet. I was surprised to wake up all achey. Then I added up time spent working in gardens yesterday: 8 hours. Ouch! Now I need to get ready for work. GT ---

Great pics! The Blue Lagoon shot is “travel mag-worthy” for sure! Slow Monday morning for me. My birthday was yesterday (low-key woohoo for me) and I had the family over Saturday for the annual My B’day-Sister’s B’day-Father’s Day celebration. I made guacamole, boneless ribs, a most awesome batch of baked beans, potatoes & onions, cole slaw, etc. I feel like a beached whale. The weather is finally feeling like summertime in the Chicago area and my flowers couldn’t be happier! I planted pinwheel geraniums from little tiny rhizomes just a few weeks ago, and lo and behold, they’re already in bloom! My dahlias and gazenias are finally willing to tiptoe out of their buds now that we have a little warmth in the air. Everything is looking faaaabulous, dahlings. ---

I’m so fucking cheerful this morning that sunshine is squirting out my ass. Not. Blurf. Brekkied, and off to get my second cup of WTHU. Last night I dreamed I was having insomnia, and that really messes with your head. ---

> [@VunderBob](#): > > \ > Last night I dreamed I was having insomnia, and that really messes with your head. Oy! Tell me about it. It rained most of last night on into this morning - my back was not happy - so I took a pain pill, called in and went back to sleep for about an hour or so - only to wake to see bright blue skies and happy (grrr) puffy white clouds. I do believe I shall drop the blinds and pull the curtains and go back to sleep on the heating pad (it has an automatic shutoff, so don’t worry - I’ve been doing this for years) ---

I didn’t sleep very well last night either, and I was all achy when I woke up. But i took a couple of aspirin with my morning handful of medications, and I’m doing ok now. I’m getting hungry, so I’ll go heat up my breakfast of leftovers. Great pics, **rigs**! The town and the land looks so beautiful! I set the pics to slideshow, so I think some non-Iceland pics are in there too. You are a beautiful woman. Feel better, **rosie**! Laterzzzzz… ---

Wow, **rigs** , Iceland sounds just amazing. I’m getting really itchy to do some more traveling. Why, oh, why wasn’t I born filthy rich??? 😛 Veddy, veddy HOT here. Soaked in the cement pond all weekend. I DID wait until later in the afternoon so I didn’t get horribly mutilated by the UV rays. The cursed Lakers beat a much more deserving basketball team. That’s all I’mma say about that. ☹ Tupug [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hvert-ertu-ad-fara-iceland-a-pictorial-mmp/499794.md?page=2)
