[This happened on a lovely Saturday afternoon on 29 NOVEMBER 2014, but was only written up just now, on 11 JANUARY 2015. Better late than never, eh?]

Fake-Football-Fanclub activity experienced a four-weekend-hiatus in November, mostly because Dear Husband (aka Finnur) was off in California for 3 weekends, which was followed by a crazy weekend where we attended two Thanksgiving parties!! (Where I took no photos, so I wouldn’t have to blog about it. Tsk, tsk!)

But, a good thing is hard to kill, so I decided leave Finnur to deal with the kiddos in order to attend the annual advent concert of the Hafnarfjörður Brass Band (Lúðrasveit Hafnarfjarðar) at the photogenic Víðistaða-Church. Our good friend, Adda, is a band member, and … uh, Adda, don’t I still owe you for the ticket?!?!?!? (Small writing hiatus while I go pay Adda for the ticket. Oops!)

Afterwards, I followed Adda and her extended family to her abode, where we ate ice cream. Mmmm… (10 images and 1 video total)

The very picturesque Víðistaða-church.

The grand entrance.

The inside of the church is dramatic, to say the least. It was so dramatic that I chose my seating based in part of which parts of the wall I would end up looking at.
