Your post was great and I can’t wait to read more!
I think it’s so awesome that you took that trip! I really want to go to Iceland!
I was stationed in Keflavik Iceland with the U.S. Navy for 3 years and 3 months from 1982 to 1985. It was one of my most memorable duty stations. The people were very friendly, and the scenery was great. Wonderful country.
