So many things to do

I have been extremely busy the preceding days preparing for the trip to Africa. I have to take both, clothes for extremely cold and difficult condition on for the top day on Kilimanjaro where I have to be prepared for -20°C and I have also to be prepared for +30°C I could have in the safari tours on the days that follows.

I have also been reading some tourist guides I have for the area and also medical and diseases information needed. And there is another complicated thing that I’m not sure what to bring with me since most of the food is included but perhaps not all and I’m not sure if I it is better for me to take my own primus or not.

Well. Anyway… Last Friday evening I had time for relaxing with some friends from work when we had a “adventure” trip in south Iceland. We went to a ghost museum among other things.

The following pictures are from that trip.

But it is London next Thursday and I’ll be in Africa early in the morning next Saturday.

Got vaccination!

I was vaccinated today against various illnesses such as yellow fever and some other that I don’t names of in English. My health is okay now and my car has fixed it self. Yes by some magic. My cars sometimes do that for my surprise.

Well, going to London Thursday next week and will be in Nairobi Saturday morning that same week. Interesting.

Hamburger

hamborgarinn
I must be a great cook since I could make that delicious hamburger earlier tonight!

Bon appetite!

Hey…. there was that sound again. What is it?

My health is not so bad any longer I hope.

I think I’m all better now. I even went outside the apartment to day and not only to sea a doctor. First I was going to drive my car but that old bastard seems to be even worse than I am. I’m even afraid it is seriously ill. Well that stupid car is just some metal junk. And I have two of them although the other one hasn’t been from home for couple of years. Yes, they like it here. Perhaps I just buy the third one, who knows.

Since the car was demonstrating I used my legs and went downtown. Not far for me to go since I almost live downtown. It is always so strange to be out among other people after illness or having been from all other people. Last week I met one doctor, one secretary at the doctor’s office, my sister and my mother. To day I met couple of hundreds on the street. Yes the main shopping street in Reykjavik where the merchants says no one ever come.

I met one woman I work with downtown. After we talked couple of minutes I got a terrible cough she said I was still with bad health and shouldn’t let anybody see me on the street. Since I always listen to attractive women (and all women are attractive) I went straight away home. Well I was going home anyway.

Later I had to go to the nearest shop to buy some onions since I was making some Indian chicken and it needed some onions. Then I realised I am not so much ill any longer.

Jibbý!

Well yes....
Since it is more than midnight it is just appropriate to post that sunset photo I took couple of weeks ago when driving with another woman I work with.

And yes again ....
I have been hearing those sounds again. It is as someone is here in the apartment. Today I thought I saw somene but I didn't. I'm wondering what it is....

It's all on it's way

Or isn't that said in English?

I’m better to day than I was yesterday and I was very bad the evening before yesterday. I will not get the vaccination until next Tuesday and I should be OK by then.

I have been in so much contact with the secretary of the doctor that does the vaccination that I’m almost considering her as one of my friends! She is calling me home to let me know about possible times and everything.

And my last entry on DPC is doing well. It has got 6.444 at the moment and would be my second highest if that was final.
highest if that was final.

But it is so strange, I have been hearing some sounds recently. Am I going mad or what?
