Time to say goodbye!!

Been great few days here in Reykjavík. Always nice to spend some quality time with the family.

Always the same questions though, when are you moving back to Iceland. Not anytime soon is always my reply. When you have an expensive hobby like i do, yes traveling is my hobby its so much better to live abroad, especially because its so much cheaper, and i don't have to travel the most expensive link between Iceland and Europe.

Now its all work and of course some fun for few weeks before its time for my next trip. Turkey with my BFF Jessica. It will be so much fun, exited about discovering new things.

Thanx for a great time everybody, always so much fun seeing you all.

Like you know mi casa es su casa, you're always welcome for a short or a long visit

lots of love

My second jogg here in Iceland, its a strange feeling runnig/jogging the same routes i was running as a teenager. The difference is that back then i was doing it because i had to, during football practise, and now i do it well not for fun but because its good for me and i want to stay healthy and fit.

On monday i went out for a jogg with Helga, a much needed one after a weekend of festivities. On saturday, was Maggi's 30th b-day with a BBQ, beer and wine. It was also the annual culturenight in Reykjavik, so later in the evening i went down town to watch fireworks and check out some pubs with Helga and Maggi.

On sunday the next party took place, Helga just finished college, she is a student now and is starting the Uni on monday, and the rest of the family was here to celebrate Maggi. So much fun coming home and meeting up with everyone.

Yesterday we had a sistersnight and went to the movies, just the 3 of us and saw bridesmaids, i havnt laughed so hard in a long time, we even got the evil eye from a few women when the were leaving, dont know what their problem was, we just thought the movie was funny =)

Well, i off to the wonderful thermalpools here, dont know if i will swim today, or just relax in the hot tubs and enjoy the little sun that is shining.

Just a few pics from our great days together. Today we went to Aspö a small island just outside of Karlskrona. We went to the beach, grilled some hotdogs and the boys bathed in the sea. The chocolate pics are from kolmården, Halldor and Hermann won this 2000g of milk chocolate. I dont know how many times i have tried winning one, and it never happened, so im just happy that they share it with me :)

Tomorrow this invasion is over and they head home to Iceland.

Bye for now, pusssss

Amazing, havnt been out for a run since 2. august and still i jogged faster today than before, so maybe drinking wine, eating junkfood and just enjoying life is the secret formula everybody is looking for ;-)

Now Runa and company have been here for a week and we have done so much since they arrived. Last wednesday we drove to Varberg to meet aunt Ragna, and our cousins Óli, Raggi and Einar with their familys. We were there for 2 days, just spending good time together.

Last saturday we drove to Öland and visitied Ölands choklad, and a small factory that makes lollipops and other candy. We drove past old castles and just had a great day. It was Eiríkurs b-day so in the evening we had steaks, and baked potatos and finished off with a wonderful chocolatecake.

Monday we woke up superearly and drove to Kolmården zoo. Its the biggest zoo in the nordic countrys and it was great. The animals have a lot of space and new for this year was riding in cable cars over the safari park. We stayed one night at the Vildmarkshotellet. After a long day in the zoo we went to the spa and relaxed in the pools before dinner.

Now we dont have any more plans, just going to do what we feel like until the go home on friday. Its been so great having them, will be hard to see them leave.

After 3 hours on the beach, took this years first dip today, i decided to go for a jogg. Was tough as hell today, the motivation and the willpower was there, still it was tough today. But when i look at the time and knowing that i had to do som walking today, still it was faster than last time i jogged this route, so i guess my fitness is improving :)

Working nights this week, the first night of tree tonight.

Tomorrow im going to get a haircut and highlights, wanna look good when my vacation starts ;)

Went out for a jogg/walk today, ran about 4 km to the gym, did some weight lifting and jogged back home. My old nemesis my intestine was teasing my while i was jogging to the gym so i kind of had to jogg and walk, jogg some more then a little walk, well i guess you know what i mean.

Only one week until the invasion of Runa, Eiríkur and the boys. It will be so much fun, and i have started counting down workpasses until my vacation, only 5 nights and maybe one day, i am hoping that i dont have to work the last day, because then i get an extra day on our trip to Varberg. Raggi and Verena are with their girls in Sweden and the plan is to meet them, Oli and Linda and their boys and of course aunt Ragga and Oli, it will be great.

cheers
