Morning walk

I took a walk around the Kibbutz this morning and saw "everything". Everything ranging from the library (with a memorial room) to the lamb-pens.

The latter is much cooler according to your own personal Icelandic reporting guy. We (I and a french guy who also arrived yesterday) saw that they had put the calfs in their own little pens and he showed me the coolest trick!

If you reach out like three fingers the calfs start sucking and licking them. It felt really friggnn awesome and waay cool to this city slicker. And the same thing with all the little lambs (no worries, they're still too small for my killing instincts to set in).

Animals are great!

But then, as we had decided to take the scenic rounabout way back to our place, we walked past this grapefruit tree and noticed that it was fruiting (blooming?). So simple as that, we picked us a fresh grapefruit straight from the tree... man! It was the best piece of fruit I've ever had.

Life really is great!

Helgen

Var i Sverige på bröllop i helgen! Måste erkänna att det var hur gött som helst att komma bort från skiten som händer här i några dagar och lovade mig själv när jag klev på planet i fredags att inte läsa några nyheter om Island tills jag kom tillbaks. Ett löfte jag höll. Tror blodtrycket sjönk med 20-30 och pulsen med minst lika många bpm. Bröllopet då? Jo, det var min barndomsvän och "storebror" PH som gick i det heliga med sin Linn i Klosterkyrkan i Lund. Så nu har de skaffat nybyggd kåk och gått o gift sig. Fan, de är ju mycket vuxnare än jag :) Bröllopsfesten var sedan knappt 100 pers på en gård i Lunds utkanter med mycket god mat, gott vin, gott sällskap och allmänt bra kalas! Klart kompetent och mycket glädje! Men sen tog det inte mer än en dag innan man drogs ner i den allmäna depressionen här på ön igen :( Suck.

Världens läskigaste spindel

Goliath Bird Eating Spider It's frequently described as "larger than a dinner plate," presumably because spider-scientists don't want to freak people out with the significantly more relevant "big enough to fit over your face." It's a foot across and, when it's in the mood, brings down entire birds and eats them. It doesn't make webs, or leap great distances--it just slowly sneaks up behind things and jumps on them. Yes, just like in your nightmares. Go ahead and check behind you. We'll wait. As if a giant spider that can bring down a moderate-sized flying animal wasn't bad enough, it's one of the "hissing bastard spiders" (that's actually its full scientific name), the creepiest creature to exist outside of a horror novel. At this point, evolution clearly just started piling in everything nasty that could possibly fit: Its spit can dissolve flesh down to the bone AND it can shoot invisible hairs that cut your eyes and mo

Undrar vad den lilla ankan tänker... den ser liksom mest förvånad ut.
