today i have been a tourist.
i got a lift from Siggi down to Reykjavik yesterday, went to the camera shop straight away only to be told that the technician was off till monday.
i reacted to that like i react to everything in life: i panic.
i walked the whole Reykjavik (the camera place is on the outskits) draggin 2 bags, looking like a stange cross between a backpacker and a fishermen, with my combo of bought-for-cheap-so-its-too-big jacket and my camera bags, untill i made it to Tihomir's house, who rescued me and took me out for dinner.
Today, while i wait for monday, i have been a tourist doing the "golden circle tour".
i have never had a "tourist experience". normally i travel alone and avoid tourist spots.
but the geyser must beseen! and as i have no car, Tihomir booked me on a mini-van tour.
The driver/guide was amazing, he spoke like a 50s movie star, liek he was trying to be sexy, and he kept talking: a mixture of icelandic history-culture and his own view on life, which was really funny.
He compared icelandic politician to cheating boyfriends and making some serious statements about horses and the meaning of life.
