They are quick to complain when there is an issue even when they are the cause, then expect me to solve it right this minute :dry:

Of course.

This evening we got all retro and went to a Beefeater. It was just as I remembered it in the 80s only with more understated carpets.

I have returned from delving in my travel Archives, and found my itinerary for Iceland circa 2002. It was a twelve night tour round Iceland. It started in Reykjavik (two nights) then three nights in Akureyri. It was from Akureyri that we went to Husavik for the extremely rough sea trip to see (one small part of the fin of) one whale. There was a good museum, well I thought so, in Husavik. I do not usually like museums, but that one was small and interesting.

After Akureyri we went to the Eastern Fjords, which were lovely, excellent and wonderful, and uncrowded. Egilsstadir was another overnight stop.

There was two nights, I think, in Hofn in the Hornafjordur region. We also saw glaciers, small icebergs, lava fields, geysirs. Kirkjubaejarklaustur (two nights) and Hveragerdi (one night) were the other towns. Then there was two more nights in Reykjavik before flying home.

I got myself a good map before the holiday, and I can send you details in a pm of where to get one.

Where are you flying from, and do you have to transfer at Keflavik?

I will pm you our itinery, we fly to Keflavik then transfer to Reykjavik airport to fly to Egilsstadir, then do the drivey bit for a week round to Akureyri before flying back for a night in Reykjavik. I have a full road map from the last time we were there, but now they give you an iPad with everything loaded on.

We went to Hveragerdi, stayed at the Hotel Ork, a shortwalk away was a lovely place which served the best cakes I have ever eaten.
