Icelanders like the word ‘laugar’. \u00a0It means ‘pool’ or ‘bath’, usually of the natural kind and geothermally heated. \u00a0Laugardagur is Saturday, and Laugarvatn is PoolWater. \u00a0I guess one was supposed to bathe on Saturdays in the olden times?<\/p>\n

Pool-thoughts aside, we spent a long weekend with Gu\u00f0r\u00fan and Snorri and two of their kids at the summer house. \u00a0First up was a lazy Saturday (5 images total):<\/p>\n

\"Our<\/a>

Our kids, barely able to eat their breakfast because the morning kiddie TV shows were on.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

\"Playing<\/a>

Playing the bean-game (Bohnanza<\/a>).<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Steinunn,<\/a>

Steinunn, Einar and \u00de\u00f3rarinn V\u00edkingur were hanging out in the summer house next door and stopped by to say hi.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Chatting<\/a>

Chatting on the patio.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Computer<\/a>

Computer time. Yes, we caved and brought the tablets along. \u00a0We expect the kids’ eyes to turn square any day now.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
