  1. Planning a trip to Iceland and liked your recap earlier this year, we took a lot of our notes from that!

    I wish we would have seen the active volcano when we were in Iceland this year! We had too many other things on our list 🙂 Can’t wait to watch The Last Wright! I hadn’t heard about it and now I will put it on my list.
