We have arrived!

We have arrived! The seven hour flight was smooth and comfortable. The plane came equipped with in seat monitors that allowed me to watch a couple of pretty good Icelandic films. I'm tired and mentally blocking their titles, but I'll get back with those later.

We arrived to a snowy and blustery Keflavik airport, as of landing it was 24 degrees. The airport is small and very clean, oddly enough the building seemed larger from the inside as it winds you through customs and passport control. We made it through passport control in a matter of seconds as a smiling agent took my passport, glanced at it and stamped. Nice to not be greeted with a blue-shirted, disgruntled looking TSA agent...

As we board the bus (which cost 2,500 isk) to the city light is breaking to the east revealing a quiet, flat and snow covered area. Visibility isn't great, but i can faintly see hills in the distance. The ride will take about 40 minutes. Erin and I both chuckled as an automated announcement told us we were required by law to wear the seatbelt and every American on the bus latched up.

More to come from Reykjavik!
