Farewell Iceland

23 09 2016

I had a chance to enjoy the Icelandic touch all over again as I was leaving from the Keflavik International Airport outside of Reykjavik for Tokyo via Paris.

Just after security where you might sit down and tie your shoelaces if you were told to take off your shoes. Love the color scheme.

At CDG, in transit. Terminal 1 is an unknown territory for me and this long (much longer than as shown) passage seemed very cool.

A Few More Lovely Houses in Reykjavik, Iceland

20 09 2016

There is not so much a “scheme” it seems but the city of Reykjavik, Iceland has very colorful and cute houses in neat shapes and rows.  Love them.

Murals in Reykjavik, Iceland, a Street Art Form

19 09 2016

The many paintings on the walls of buildings in Reykjavik appear designed rather than being spontaneous.  I was told some are commissioned.  Either way, they seem full of life and very much a part of the city.

Back to My Icelandic Trip: a Visit to Hallgrimskirkja

18 09 2016

Hallgrimskirkja is that church that stands tall and visible from all over the city of Reykjavik, Iceland.  The architecture is magnificent and striking.  And the view from it, equally so.
