Iceland's Uniqueness and Typicalities

In December 2010 Bella and I visited the museum of etnology in Leiden: Museum van Volkenkunde. There we met John walking up the lane entrance while having a closer look at the typical Maori boat, the waka. He told us a little bit about this, unaware why the director of this museum would do this anyway. After a few minutes he asked us if he could walk up with us going to the entrance hall of the museum, and while we were talking and stepping into the entrance hall, we were received by an audience of photographers, and other people, specially for us. Well, not us, but the 100,000 visitor of the year. Bella was the one. That was a big surprise, and fun. Bella had the best time of her life, in a musuem, she told me afterwards. She was beaming.

This was oke on itself, however, you can imagine we received not only the honours, but also were awarded a price: an expedition to Iceland.

Here you go, next week were are going; Wednesday, April 27th.
