Bon Voyage Icelanders


We had a early flight. The car came and got us at 5 a.m. Of course we got up slightly before that and he got there before we were ready to go. We called out to him and then got in the car and headed off to the airport at 4:45. After a foggy rainy drive we got the airport at 5:30 and it was already very busy. People were lined up everywhere.  Luckily we asked for help and they pointed us over to the self serve kiosks so we were able to check in.  Most of the other people were just standing in line like sheep. Luckily we upgraded to Saga class and spent the next hour in the lounge. We did not drink 3 glasses of wine like the other folks we saw. We just had some food. I asked the lady at the lounge whether it was a real gate or whether we would have to take a bus and of course we had to take a bus. We were in position however so that when they open the gate up we were first on the bus second off the bus into our seats perfect
You're no longer in the city and there's a sign up to let you know you're no longer in the city

The end of the land. We could see little villages scattered along the edges
