Good Morning Iceland!

10/29/2021

Arrived in Iceland bright an early this morning after a pretty easy five hour flight from Boston. Today's weather is cold but calm and sunny, perfect for getting a fast introduction to the country before flying out for Greenland tomorrow evening.

Real quick, a few pictures of Reykjavik. More to come this evening!

Pancakes and an Americano with Alice at the Laundromat Cafe (yes, you can do your laundry downstairs)

I am glad you had an easy safe flight. The pictures are beautiful. I would have never of guessed a café would have a laundry mat underneath! That is definitely different from what you see here. The building Harpa, the main concert venue in Reykjavik, looks very beautiful. The wall of windows is something I have never seen before. Very cool!

About me:

In fall of 2021, I led an experiential eLearning project connecting US students (and public) with the people, places, and industries of Greenland. With funding from university partnerships and the US Consulate to Greenland, I redesigned a research trip into a virtual field trip for my students who didn't have any Study Abroad options. The videos, photos, interviews, and storytelling remain here to enjoy!
