BEYOND VINELAND

So today begins the journey to Iceland.
I am using a new netbook for this trip instead of the palm, the typing should be a bit better, though the keyboard is tiny for my fingers and HS learned typing method, so excuse any extra letters in words that i might miss!
The volcano has settled ( did i mention I knew it would) and I look forwArd to seeing a new land and meeting many new people.
The Sacramento airport is still nice, despite their effortsa to build a single big terminal. I sort of like this one. Security was nice enough, and they all were friendly and helpful, be nice to the cattle for they provide your pay! three hours early they want you to check in, it took 10 minutes to get through security, so i get to sit for three hours with my carry on stuff waiting, and watching the poor little finch that is stuck inside the terminal looking for an opening at the big windows. One presi=umes from the lack of concern on the part of the employees and staff that it is a common occurance here.
first stop ois Seattle, then on to Keflavik airport, and the bus to Reykjavik!
In preperation i have set my watch to GMT, or Zulu hour, mostly so i do not miss the return flight, i will be 7 hours ahead of you all back in California, it will be like time travel, seeing into the future! The SKYPE will be in use on this trip, so I will be able to let you all know how it is for phoning home from afar!
next instZllment will be form the land of Fire and Ice!
