Iceland Horse trek
 

Last month I went to Iceland for a quick vacation. Flew into Reykjavik on Saturday morning. Spent the day in Reykjavik - they were celebrating gay pride so it was quite colorful. On Sunday morning I headed to the northwest - the Vatsandalur Valley for 3 days of riding across the valley. In a word it was spectacular. The weather was perfect, the daylight lasted for 19 hours or so and the horses were the sweetest most willing steeds. We rode with a herd of loose horses, some of us riding in front while others fanned out in the back.

Anyone who has thought about going should stop thinking and go. It was probably one of my favorite vacations and I have had some pretty nice vacations. The accomodations are spartan, the food is basic but the exhilirating rides and scenery make this vacation. I'm making my plans to head back next year.

As always, I took many pictures. Here is a link to them - enjoy

Oh boy.







Hey..was that the Riccola Brothers I saw in that collection?

Do something about your hair...ya look like a mop.

Really...you "took a quick vacation to Iceland"....this is elitist stuff lady.




This is not MyVacationsareBetterthanYours.com

Ror!

Welcome back, Morty!!

Too kind.




I'll just be poppng in here and there from time to time.

Hey!...I like the way that sounds...could be a song title.

Anyhooo...I know it's hard reminding too many posters of their insignificance...ya just can't do it all by yourself.



Great job in vaporizing Yep...Bent Mah Pud......by the way.

If you took a minute to research or sincerely ask a question you would find out that it is indeed possible to take a "quick vacation to Iceland" and nominally more expensive than a "quick weekend to Saratoga", and far less expensive and less time consuming than a "quick vacation to Del Mar"

I was checking these out earlier and some of your shots are really stunning.

Glad you had a nice time.

(Hi Morty).

Great pictures. Glad you shared them. Glad you had a great time.

Oh yer breakin' my heart already.




For your informaton those aren't really the Riccola Bros...so that's one they put over on you.

And I wouldn't tip whoever it is doing your hair.


The photos are worse than watching Uncle Bob's slides from his Canadian canoe trip.







Next time take a quick trip on a slow people mover.











( Hi BrownSugar!)

I looked at all the photos this time.







Geez!

My God lady!....you could have gone to any hinterland ..taken outdoor snaps.....and then gone inside any looney bin to get the same results!!

You didn't actualy pay for this thing......did ya?







I'm sorry..I shouldn't make fun.

I think the ram photos put me over the edge.








If I had seen the Swedey Chef......I'd have been on the floor......really.. it's the only thing lacking.

Oh I'm sorry...honest.





I shouldn't ask this...but which ones were your friends?
