==== Intro ====

<WRAP center justify 100%>
As expected, it ran every day... and sometimes even worse (really, really worse!). As expected, we breathed sulfur by liters and swallowed solfatars' smoke by tons. As excepted, we got lost on desert roads, driving for miles and miles in the middle of nowhere. And, as expected, we couldn't do everything we had planed to do, or would have loved to do... But, how could it have been a more wonderful week, that the one we spent?

  * CDG, c'est toujours le gros bordel.
  * Check-in started 30 minutes late...
  * ... But we took-off on time.
  * Nothing to say during the flight...
  * ... But a lot about landing !!!

  * ... But (hopefully) didn't !
  * Nobody aplause the pilot, despite it's the first time I thought it would have been earned.

  * Then, we had breakfast.
  * The weather was not really fine..
  * We went to pick-up concert tickets...
  * ... Under a light drizzle.
  * By the shore, the wind was really strong.
  * Then, the sun finally went out.
  * Great light for pictures!

==== D3 - Sigurdagur====

<text type="muted" size="10" align="justify">**04/11/2012** | Reykjavík</text>

  * The sun was shinning...
  * ... What, in itself, wasn't really surprising : it was excepted to be a beautiful day!
  * We walked in the streets and made lost of pictures.
  * Then, went to the Viking Museum.
  * Then, have a rest...
  * ... Until time has come ti get ready for Sigur Rós' concert.
  * We walked to Laugardalshöllin.
  * Lot of people were waiting... with an impressive self-disciplin!.
  * The concert started one hour late.
  * We still wonder why.
  * Nevermind...
  * From the start, we were astonished by the sounds and lights.
  * So, we could only let them make us travel.
  * It could have last the whole night...
  * Unfortunately, it didn't.

  * Geysir and Gullfoss... under the rain again.
  * Then, we went to Selfoss...
  * ... And its first class youth hostel!

  * "What the hell is that room?"

==== D5 - If you don't like the weather...====

<text type="muted" size="10" align="justify">**06/11/2012** | Selfoss - Seljalandsfoss - Skógafoss - Vík</text>

  * ... Wait 5 minutes!
  * We initially were supposed to go to Stöng, an ancient Viking farm.
  * But the road was really too snowy to our small car.
  * So we decided to go back...
  * ... And go directly to Seljalandsfoss.
  * Then Skógafoss.
  * And, finally, we took the road to Vík...
  * ... My God...
  * A snow storm on the road!
  * One of the scariest drive of my life.
  * We finally reached the Youth Hostel (eh eh: again!)
  * Wel, you asked me to plan the trip...

  * A brief moment on the black sand beach...
  * Waves were so strong!
  * Great light for pictures.
  * Some miles away, Dyrhólaey...
  * ... Where the world ends.
