Touch down in the USA!

After our 4.5 month international adventure we are back in the good ole U. S. of A!

This morning we bid farewell to Anna Maria, our wonderful hostess in Iceland, before she went to work. Then we had the opportunity to explore the Perlan Museum. It had just opened a new exhibit so we were able to visit for only 1 krona each (less than 1 cent!). They have re-created an ice cave inside so we were able to go inside and explore as long as we wanted (although it was really cold in there!). Then we walked through the glacial exhibit which was really interesting. All in all very worthwhile, and it was hard to beat the price!




Then we went to get some food and started with some Valdis ice cream since hey, last day in Iceland! Then I got some ramen at a place I had spied earlier in our visit. It was good but couldn't touch the ramen in Japan!

Then we packed up and went to the airport. 8 hours later we landed in Chicago! Matt's parents picked us up and we'll stay with them tonight before heading to Madison tomorrow. 


For the next 36 hours we'll be visiting with friends and family and then we start the US portion of our trip. We'll be rushing to get to San Francisco by next Saturday for our friend's wedding. We'll update you as we go!

I published my Iceland summary so check it out!

  1. What a fabulous adventure you guys have had! We are so proud of you. Buffalo Wild Wings was the first stop? I wondered what it would be! I can't wait to see all of the USA adventures!
