<\/a>Latitude never lies! \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n
Yup, I’m on a two-night worktrip to Denmark, to participate in organizing a conference this fall about a subject I know rather little about. \u00a0But I probably know more than Regular-Joe, and am therefore eligible to be ‘the Icelandic representative’ apparently.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Today's airplane was Eldborg. I like that the Icelandair planes have names. \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n
So far the trip has been mostly uneventful. \u00a0The biggest drama by far was being seated next to a women who’s husband had just been in a serious accident in Norway, and she was in absolute pieces. \u00a0Thankfully it transpired quickly that a friend of hers was sitting right behind her (middle seats both) so I offered them my window seat so that they could sit next to each other. \u00a0Best decision of the day, for sure. \u00a0I was a little concerned that the man sitting next to me in my new seat was also about to have a nervous breakdown, but as they disembarked he didn’t seem to be traveling with them, so I don’t know what was up with him. \u00a0A\u00a0migraine\u00a0possibly?<\/p>\n
In other news, I found the ‘new’ Sherlock Holmes movie boring and gave up after 40 minutes and started reading on the computer. \u00a0Then towards the end of the flight they had us ‘turn off all electronics’ so I went back to the in-flight stuff, and thoroughly enjoyed the beginning of The Matrix – although some of it is now showing its age. \u00a0But I still remember the thrill of seeing it for the first time, so all was forgiven. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
<\/a>A sure sign one is no longer in Iceland: A train. There are no (proper) trains in Iceland. Nada, Zero.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>I'm staying at the Clarion Collection Hotel Mayfair, and my room includes a 'light dinner buffet' which I took full advantage of tonight. Also, smartphones are a blessing for the solo traveler! \ud83d\ude42 Gotta love that internet...<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>After dinner I took a quick stroll around the area, which ended at this central-train-station-coffee-house. I walked around the Tivoli (too late and too expensive to go inside), and checked out city hall. I took lots of pictures, but because I always have to forget to pack something - in this case the camera USB cable - I probably won't be able to transfer the photos off the camera until I return home. Tsk, tsk!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
