Here are some things that you shouldn’t miss out on in Iceland:
1. Gullies. I have to say this. The gullies are amazing. Alcove, channel, apron–three words for love.
2. Darkness. They have darkness in Iceland! Along with electricity, it is just about the only thing they don’t have to import. Which is a good match, actually. Darkness, electricity. Darkness, electricity, gullies. Truly, this is God’s country.
3. Lions.* Many, many lions. Watch out for the lions in the darkness. Especially because the lions are black!
4. Lava bombs. Don’t miss the lava bombs–they’re killer!
5. Sadness. Iceland is very sad. It is an igloo made of frozen blocks of sadness, and we are curled up inside, huddled on our walrus skins, telling stories about that one time that a baby walrus wandered into camp and Baldur fed it alcohol and made it drunk before he killed it and roasted it over the fire. What a sweet sizzling smell! The memory is almost enough to make us forget that we are living in an igloo of sadness, as the darkness and black lions creep around outside. Almost, but not quite.
6. In Iceland there are computers. I very much hope that no one uses those computers to look at what I have written on this website.
*Lions symbolize Wisdom. If you’d like to know more, look HERE.
