Blue Monday — why we 💕 Iceland

Let me count the ways:
• Real coffee everywhere (not espresso),
• Apollo astronaut testing grounds,
• Game of Thrones filming site for the Wildlings,
• Credit cards accepted everywhere and no tips,
• Funky horses with a unique gait,
• Free tap water is better than bottled water, so free of plastic
• First country to recognize Estonia’s independence,
• Iceland’s Leif Erikson discovered North America in 999, long before Columbus. My son was born on the 1000-year anniversary.

We added an impromptu stopover last weekend and sampled the beauty of the icy lands.
