I'm back from Iceland and I have a ton of pictures, stories, and suggestions for anyone who wants to visit this amazing place. But I'll get to that later. I am too jet-lagged and foggy to start with the debriefing today. I will say this: Yes, I tried the whale. (Icelanders have been carefully harvesting whale without depleting populations for a long time. It's traditional and they take only a few animals a year.) No. I didn't eat Puffin (but only because it was out of season). I also met two of Iceland's biggest celebrities and soaked in the Blue Lagoon (pictured). More on all of that later.
I have a couple of bits of news, I want to share right now. You all know that Riverfest starts on Friday, right? The schedule of events is here. And all sorts of information about the festivities, its history, who benefits, and how to volunteer are here. Also note that (my favorite spot on the river) Catalan will open at noon and stay open till they decide to close on Sunday. The Tartines du Catalan are great with a glass wine.
