The flags are out on the Mall in London
A Trip to Reykjavik, Iceland - 20th April 2017
It's nearly Nosher's 50th birthday, so Isobel arranges a trip to Ísland and the city of Reykjavik, whilst the boys are looked after thanks to Sarah and Suey. On our first night in the town, we get a taste of just how eye-wateringly expensive stuff can be - it's something we'd heard about, but nothing quite prepares you for it until you're actually there.

Early spring foliage on Constitution Hill
A gun carriage outside Buckingham Palace
A wrecked building near Brantham
The derelict site is cleared out
Graffiti tags on a wrecked building
The diggers are in demolishing stuff
A cloud of dust as the diggers get to work

A dude plays a Harmonium on the Tube
Paddington is packed with trains
Isobel on the Heathrow Express
Isobel in Terminal 2 at Heathrow

Some sort of building or re-building occurs
A former BA maintenance hangar
The plane taxis right past Concorde
A view of Iceland from the air
It's graffiti Ísland-style, near Keflavik
A remote house on the road from Keflavik
Isolated house in the volcanic wilderness

There's a lot of street art in Reykjavik
Funky many-windowed hotel
A view down to Faxaflói bay
It snows a bit on Laugavegur
An eagle picture
Wall art for Reykjavik Chips
Godzilla takes on Reykjavik
Eagles are clearly popular
Isobel and glass of wine in the restaurant
Isobel contemplates her £15 open sandwich
Outside, it snows for a bit
A nice little Icelandic pudding

Back-street graffiti
A curious electrical hut
Another Reykjavik street
More graffiti
Graffiti and wall art
