I was going though my pictures. I wanted pictures from amusement parks we name Tivoli.More than one. I am going to post some pictures of Tivoli but fist this. Oh my god were we so young. I thought we had always been the same age we are.lol

Young but we were still younger in the 80's lol  The pictures are all from places that I have talked about before. One is by the statue of Leif Erickson. Another in the island where yoko ono did her light art piece. One on Thingvellir where althing was founded in 930. and then the Tivoli pictures but in my next post I will talk about Tivoli.

I´m not going to flood you with posts all at once. So it will wait. The island was still very rural in the 80's. Peace and quiet still you could see the city very near to you.

Oh and then there are two in our kitchen Pálmi and I being so young. lol I did not think we were all that young then.

    time slips by when you're not looking.  It seems you did spend a lot of time with the kids, which is so nice.
  • skald said on Nov 27, 2007....
    Uniquely.  I was home working that is I was a house maker for years and years and Pálmi spent all his free time with the kids too. They meant every thing to us.

    skald, I am sad that I don't take the time to read all of your blogs or view all of your pictures. Because every time that I do decide to stop by I am glad that I did so. Your pictures and memories are beautiful.

    Nice pictures Skald.  You are such a beautiful woman.  I also really like the ones of the kids and you outside - it looks like a postcard.

    You always have such wonderful pictures Skald.  They make me want to visit you in Iceland.

    All good, as always--and as usual I have to say my favorites:  The next to the last two.
     
    I think I read recently that Iceland had been named as the new #1 best country to live in.  If I am correct--I can see why!

    Just stopped in you are so young!!!
  • hotaka said on Nov 27, 2007....
    The island looks so lovely. I am sure I could spend many blissful days there. Interesting to see you as a young mother, skald. I feel like I am at one end of the child-raising spectrum looking through to the middle.
  • RollingC said on Nov 28, 2007....
    Nice pics Skald.....back in the 80's we were all so young....(and still are for the most part).  :>)
  • queenparanoia said on Nov 28, 2007....
    skald; nice pics!!! yeah you guys were young on that pics.... hehehehe and palmi doesn't have gray hair!!! =)
  • skald said on Nov 28, 2007....
    Tin. Thanks for stopping by. You see I am the same, I don't get the time to look at so many people's blogs. I want to look but the time just dose not always allow that.
    Fearing.  Thanks I  know you are very beautiful. I remember well your picture with you and your son on graduation
    Piclers.  I am glad you want to visit us but don't come now in the dark and cold months. lol
    Wombat.  Yes I heard this on the news yesterday but did not pay it much attention. I saw it again in the paper. We have been high up the list for years but  Norway on the top. Now we are there.. There are some factors they take in to consideration and I honestly don't know all of them.
    Walking.  Oh thanks a bunch. lol
    Hotaka.  Good luck with your child raising Hotaka. It is really the most important job we ever get.
    Rolling.  Strange how many years ago the 80's were. Thanks for the comment
    Queen.  Pálmi had some more hair and you should have seen him some years before that when he had locks. lol

    aaw nice pics, I love looking through old albums and seeing how much people have changed over the years :-)  its good that you still have them all to dig out and reminiss sp?  :-) xx
  • skald said on Nov 28, 2007....
    Destiny.  The trouble is one digs them so seldom out. I like having pictures on the computer. It is so handy. Thanks for the comment. 
  • beyondtheveil said on Nov 28, 2007....
    I always enjoy your pics and hope you keep them coming. The bumper cars brought back memories- I used to love those things. 
  • pickersplock said on Nov 28, 2007....
    I'm just curious Skald, how many hours of darkness do you have now and how long does that last?
  • skald said on Nov 28, 2007....
    beyond. I remember going in one and it did not move the whole session. Was I feeling embarrassed. Of course there was something wrong with it and I got a new one, the next time around. They had those sticks that connected into the ceiling.
    Pickers. I guess it is light about 11am and it is dark about 5. Soon it will get darker sooner. I have not really noticed it, But I think the shortest day will be light from 11 to 3 After the 24th of December it will get lighter by one minute each day and then faster and faster. At June 24th we will have day, 24 hours. and after that it gets darker by one minute and suddenly we have the dark months again, November , December. I love the daylight in late January. It is my birth month and I always think the light is so special than.
  • pickersplock said on Nov 28, 2007....
    Wow, being in darkness that long must be difficult.  Our shortest day here, I think, goes from about 6:30 to 4:30. 
  • skald said on Nov 28, 2007....
    Pickers.  I really don't notice it , just as in summer I find it natural to have light 24 hours. Must be my genes. lol 

    By the where about on the earth are you. Middle?

Well I have'nt exactly been truthful to you and it's been bothering me...
I knew it was coming. We thought we would lose him earlier this year to congestive heart failure. Somehow this wonderful soul hung on for a few more months and at 4:30 this morning he slipped away in his sleep. He was like a father to...
We finally told our families! Much rejoicing.......
That's me - may as well worry about myself - no one else seems too concerned with how I might feel.

Be warned - this is a self-indulgent, pitious little rant about how no one appreciates me! Pardon while I stomp around a bit and have myself ...
This is one Thanksgiving memory I won't forget. Even if I seem to forget everything else....
