A Walk Around Reykjavik


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!
