Day 116-swimming in Borgarnes

   April 29-Everyone took advantage of the weekend and slept in today.  Alex did, too, down in Keflavík.  She tells us that she has learned that she can sleep in if she stays up until 1 or 2 in the morning.......
   Sally did some work on her class today, Shan puttered around the apartment getting caught up on e-mails, and Spencer and Joslyn played around.  In the early afternoon, we headed to Borgarnes to eat dinner and go swimming at the pool.  The weather has warmed so much (almost 50 degrees today), that the bakery had put up tables and chairs outside, although no one was using them while we were there.  We enjoyed the pool and then went and had ice cream at Hyrnan to cool down.

Imba, Brynja, Alex, Þorgerður, and Kristín at the giant house.

   Meanwhile, Alex had a lazy morning in Keflavík.  She went to the harbor with her friends to see the giant house and they watched
another movie.  Then, they drove to Reykjavík so Brynja's mom could do some shopping.  They headed towards Bifröst after that and Alex got home a few minutes after we got back from Borgarnes. 
   Evening rolled around (as it were).  We all played a game of Settlers of Catan.  This was Joslyn's first game ever.  She got expert advice from Alex, who was
too tired to commit to a full game.
The kids hit the sack and the adults did the same a short time later.
