Low-key

Today was fairly low-key. We had a couple of shots this morning and were finished with puppet stuff by two o’clock. Emily and I left the building and headed out to do errands. While I love living in Reykjavík the fact that everything closes at five or six is very challenging when trying to deal with business things.

I went to the bank and actually managed to say, “May I pay these?” in Icelandic–oh, I should explain that you pay all bills at the banks in Iceland. It’s easy, unless you don’t get off work until seven p.m.

After that, we went to the turf house for seafood soup. It’s this delightful little house right by the thermal beach. They have amazing soup and are willing to let you sit for hours.
