We got into our apartment and we immediately smelled smoke. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a fire in the fireplace. It stunk like an ashtray full of cigarettes. We think someone smoked in the bathroom of our non-smoking apartment. Whenever we open the front door, we nearly choke. We went to the store and bought all kinds Read More …

Germany was beautiful, but I could never live there. There is way too much smoking. This is the bad thing about Germany. Everywhere, people are smoking. We stayed in a bed and breakfast, and, it was a non-smoking place, but, still, in the restaurant outside, there was smoking and it came up to our room. Read More …

Iceland was very cool, but cold. I could live there if it was warmer. The food was wonderful, and they have a large assortment of different foods.

Our first trip to the grocery store in Reykjavik, and, at the very front of the store, where all the tourists can see, they stock the junk food.

One of the best parts of this trip is that I get to see my dear friend Zahra. She is absolutely darling, and, I enjoy making her say the word “water.” We argued over the pronunciation of water starting 20 years ago when we met. She insisted it was pronounced wou-tah and did a hilarious Read More …
