Thanks to you Ned!

...I got to experience the amazing sight at night
in N.Y. from the 86th floor of Empire State Building.
North, east, south and west.
What an amaaaaazing thing to experience.
Thank you! :)

Now, don't think it was easy getting me up there, first
an elevator to the 80th floor(that only took 58sec!) and then another the last six.
The guys working there almost sent me back down,
noooooooooooo kidding.
BUT, I didn't give into my insecurities, fear or whatnot
and let go. Mind you I wasn't the best company, not willing/able
to talk, just walk.

New York is great, especially if you're into walking, it's easier said
than done to drive a car in the city.
But then big cities have their ups and indeed their downs.

When back to Iceland it was a frosty morning

but I didn't really feel it too much though coming from 20-25 stiga hita.
Not much turbulance, the plane was packed
and I sat next to this ...probably 16, 17 year old
"disser" with a cowboy hat. He sat next to his brother
and both behind, front and aside of us were his family.
I guess they went to Texas or som'n.
I was able to take a little nap, about half hour ish.
When landed...boy oh boy! planes from Boston, Minneapolis,
Florida, N.Y., BWI and Cuba. I have never seen such a crowd
there and in the duty free store were only two people on the
registers...GOODNESS! one would think they knew how many
were coming.

I was excited to see Chico but he was far too busy with everything
else :( now though he's all over me and back to himself...could it
be that he was punishing me... I've heard about that.

Ah, BWI, I had to pay $30 for two freaking kilo's...could have been
worse, could have been $75, or $100 for the two apples...
I decided to tell them what Ned told me about fat people,
the reason why they changed luggage rules, because people are
getting so fat. They couldn't stop laughing...
The "guy" said ..."next time someone comes and the plain is full
or something, I'll tell him, sorry, you're too fat!" and then he laughed
soooooooooo hard...ok, alveg rolegur!


Yesterday I had planned to go to work, didn't make it, went for a visit
with stuff to deliver and then back home to do looooooads and loads of
loundry...for some odd reason...

I used this morning for the first time sneakers I bought in MD, Nike
they are soooooooooooo soft and nice and comfy!
I ran three times faster than usual!!!...well, almost.
Kari Steinn my nephew won the IR hlaup, today was actually
a 100th year aniversary. He ran 5km on 15.33 min, pretty darn good!

Well, better get to some laundry...don't understand, seam to be washing
the same stuff over and over again...or something...

:)

Frog with a sound...
