far in the Atlantic

Hello all, rainy and windy Saturday night at this place of the globe.
Sitting alone in Garðabær.

Have a few pics here from the funeral..



45min. before the funeral started. Many people here already, It was not enough space for them all inside so, there was a bus and people stayed in their cars as well and listened to the ceremony through the local radio.







This pic speaks for it self, my dad is standing by the far end.















The taller one is my brother :) Gunnar and by him Gummi, one of the sons of one of my fathers systers.





























At the far end, other people having coffee we
covering Valdis remains.

The trip to Egypt I told you about before...
Well, I'm not aloud to go cause I didn't book any one with me, can't go by my self with all the people on the trip.
Not the answer I wanted, far away from it, but I guess it wasn't ment to happen.

I've started t learn French again, 2 times per week from 18:15 to 19:45, Mondays and Wednesdays.

I would say to people that have wanted to go and see few parts of Iceland to come now !!! the Icelandic krona have NEVER been so weak.
So, it's very expensive for us, the Icelandic folks to go and travel it's actually very good for others to come and say hi to us. the Icelandic krona is the same as 138 Euros now.
It was around 80-90 Euros when I was in France last year and then we thought it was high !.
So think about it. :)

Well I hope everything is "swell" at your end.
It would be nice to hear how the weather is at other places than Iceland.
Regard, Ása Björg
