Hi Gina, thanks for that.

It was good, the land of fire and ice. Lots of natural wonders, hiked a glacier, went snowmobiling, went to a tomato restaurant, and the blue lagoon. It's a seemingly contented population and a Christian nation I was told. Whale, horse, and puffin are to be found on menus.

[WXRGina]

Wow! And very cool! It sounds like you had a blast! I’m glad and glad you’re home safely.

You forgot rotted & cured shark, and they make lutefisk enjoyable.

[Vision]

We didn't come across that, thankfully.
