GPS plot of ship in Bay in NE Iceland	Approaching the very isolated northeastern coast. The Captain brought the ship close to a fishing village and tooted the horn. The folks are still hiding under their beds.	Downtown Akureyri has lots of street lights. Wonder why.

Akureyri is a beautiful little city at the end of a 100+ Km fjord at the Northwestern coast.	Reykjavik is the most northern capital city in the world. The Pearl is a rotating restaurant on the top of the thermal hot water tanks. The city is heated from a hot spring.	A mean looking Uncle Sam beckons folks into the store. You can't make this stuff up.

The Godafoss (God's Falls) waterfall is in the northern part of the island. Note the dapper hiking hat, cargo pants, and athletic pose.	Hallgrim's Church dominates the skyline of Reykjavik--when people are not lookng at the Pearl.	The guide said that the European and North American plates separate here. OK, it looks like it to me.

Everyone takes the "Golden Circle Tour" out of Reykjavik to see hot springs and geysers.	The Gullifoss falls is fantastic, too	And big! See the people on the cliff at mid-picture.

There are three really big glaciers in Iceland. This is one of the smaller ones.		The Summit House is where the cold war ended.
