The Big Party Weekend

Posted in Iceland, Music by Jon Gustafsson on August 4, 2008

The big August long weekend is here. Thousands of people are camping out at these big drunken orgy festivals, but not me. I went for a hike around Ölkelduháls and Reykjadalur (Steam Valley). If you ever get to Iceland you should try to find this place. At the top of the valley you find the source of Reykjadals-river, actually two sources, one hot and one not so hot. Where those two meet is a very popular bathing spot.

    Just scooting by. Miss Keziah sent me over here to look at the sheep. That sheep shot was stunning, but — OMG — the horses! You take gorgeous photographs. I just ordered Wrath of Gods.

    Continued success.

    I will be in Iceland from Sept 28th – Oct 2nd doing research into the music scene and how to my association can do more work in Iceland. This is in preperation for a major Nova Scotia Trade Mission taking place in 2009.

    Just thought i’d post this message to gain some insight into Iceland and the scene there. We are looking for people to hang out with while there and will be looking for guides to the nightlife.
