Deconstruction before the rebuilding continues.
Einar Jonsson Museum and sculpture park.
A local house- I wanted to go inside :)
Hallgrimskirkja
Leifur Eiriksson statue. The Viking who was the first European to discover America.
Gift shop window.
Loo stop! I am always scared that the door will swing open before I have finished or that the loo will start its rinse cycle while I am still inside!
The view while waiting for the loo! (I'm pleased to say I got out in one piece!!)
Coffee break- one of many!
Turret.
A statue that I nicknamed "Woman with Kettle-bells". She looks really tired, bless her! Actually, she probably was very tired. The statue, by Asmundur Sveinsson, depicts a woman who carried water to every household in town, year round. Boy, must she have been strong!
I've been reading your last few posts with great interest as Iceland is on my list of places to visit. Sounds like a fascinating country.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading Gina! It is amazing-the buildings are mostly "functional" rather than beautiful but the country is incredible! There will be at least one more post still to come.
