I went out on a shopping spree today to buy clothes for the trip... 600 bucks worth of clothing and such...husband's going to chop off my head when he sees the bill....
In 12 days I'll be leaving for Iceland. Tonight I started the preparation so that we won't forget things needed for the trip. This is getting exciting now day by day for we've been looking forward this trip for 2 years. As soon as we got back from Wales we started to plan for Iceland and here we are just 12 days away from it.
Almost everything is packed up for the trip. Everyday I visit the net to look at beautiful pictures from this country. Fantastic vistas that I just can't wait to see with my own eyes and then have them frozen in time on my camera.
Only a few days left (less then 8 days) and my dream will come true.
When your in Iceland keep an eye out for BEAR. He's so damn stupid he's likely to wander over there and get his butt shot off. If he does serves him right I keep telling him to stay close to Churchills' dump.
Well, now in less then a week I will be off to Iceland. Today I typed our log journal for the trip, completed the list of things not to forget and so on. Pretty much everything is ready only a few trinkets to drop in the trunks as the last minute on Friday.
My Dickens (my cat) seems to have adopted my bags this week-end and he makes this little annoying noise when I take him down from it he just jumps right back on it. He knows that we are about to leave soon, he follows me everywhere in the house. I think he remembers the last time when we left for Wales for when we came back he snobbed us for a couple of days...rotten cat. Oh! well I guess this time he'll snob us for longer then the last because now he'll be completely by himself since his old sister passed on last november.
Excitement is in the air at home now as we get nearer and nearer our departure on Friday...especially me for I hardly sleep in the night thinking about everything.Try not to forget this and that and so on.
And cat is getting more frustrated by the minute, the snobbing as started (the traitor)because now in the morning he goes down in his room and doesn't come up...poor baby I'll miss him.
Tonight it'll be the final check on things and then closed the bags and all 'til Friday.
I hope you have a wonderful trip. I can just imagine the look on your cat's face. I wonder if they have any concept of time. I know when we go on trips our dogs take full advantage of my daughter who looks after them.
I have a friend who brought me back a product from Iceland called Blue Lagoon Geothermal skin care. It is a very nice moisterizer and also there was a face mask. Do you plan on enjoying the thermal waters?
Stay safe,
Flora

Why thank you Flora, we will and don't worry we'll stay safe and as much as we like to discover and explore we always travel on the safe mode and caution especially in the unknown.Even here it is our way.
As for the geothermal waters and lagoons you bet that we will experience them and plan a massage in the lagoon itself. I'll be in complete bliss I may fake amnesia not to come back..hahaha!!!
Lady Of Avalon I just want to wish you a safe and exciting trip. Can't wait to see pictures.

Thanks for the tips Camac I'll make sure to have thrown out of the lagoon waters if I see him that's no place for him.
Thanks Iolanda and Valpal59 it's been a week of excitement so much so that I hardly slept but it's okay, it's a good giddy feeling I guess.
Well now tonight I'll check on our last final details for our departure tomorrow to make sure we don't forget anything. And then: Here we come Iceland!!!!!!!!WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll say my goodbyes tomorrow before I go.
