Scotland 2010

We didn't know we were going to Scotland until the day we were flying out due to the volcano eruption. We had no time to prepare or to even know how long we would stay there. We ended up having 6 hours to go into Glasgow, which was enough time to find Starbucks, hop on a double decker tour bus, and get back to the airport. We were so lucky to have that little side trip and no extra charge!

Iceland 2010

We ended up being routed through northern Iceland, to a small airport in Akureyri. The scenery was so beautiful and on the way in we could see the ash plume from the volcano erupting. Look in the upper right picture, you really can see the dark spot that looks like a smudge and that's the ash plume. I do hope that some day we can go back to Iceland and actually get off the plane.
