Today was the day of Bjarni’s confirmation, aka my reason for being in Iceland! Anna and I skipped the church part in the morning, but embarked on an elaborate sleep schedule instead ing so Anna would be freshly awoken by the time we arrived at the photographer’s around 12:30. The photography-session went well we hope, we’ll know when the pictures arrive! <\/p>\n
