February Winter-Break UK Trip – Part 1 of 2

I think this was the first winter where we went to the UK for both winter breaks (2 days off, adjacent to a weekend). It so happens that Finnur’s working closely with people in London these days, so it made sense for him to spend a week working there, and why not get a change of scenery for the rest of us along the way? So to the UK we went! Again! (29 images total)

At the airport, as I walk back from the long-term parking lot to the terminal building.

The airport company charges an arm and a leg for these parking spots. I can’t understand why they don’t save the annual scrape-snow budget and build a roof over the cars. It would make me feel better about paying so much…

Poor Emma is the only one to not have a dedicated gadget.

Anna’s revenge.

Obligatory selfie.

Boarding at 7 pm. I like late flights.

Bjarki being chased by Anna after doing something she was unhappy about. Oh, siblings!

We wanted to visit the toboggan run, and made it out of the door at 11 am.

Sadly, we weren’t early enough. The schools in the area were also on break, so the toboggan run was packed. We decided to try again at a later date!

Granddad Gunnar decided to soften the no-toboggan blow by taking us to a nearby shopping mall for ice cream. On the way there we passed people on horses on the road. Eeek!
