Land of Fire and Ice

Current location: Reykjavik, Iceland


Though I haven't yet seen any fire or ice, I did learn in the National Museum yesterday that they are represented on Iceland's flag : when they were designing the national flag, it was originally going to be just a blue background with a white cross, to represent the glaciers, but they decided to add a red cross to represent the fire from the volcanoes! Cool!

Note: I will no longer be uploading photos to to my blog because blogger decided to install some new, "better" system that doesn't work! Thanks a lot!!
