Iceland-last few hours plus a flight home

 I slept in on our last morning, Brian didn't.  Both typical.  He wandered out to get some coffee for us and came across a second location of the bakery I mentioned in our first Iceland blog post.  This was the main location.  The place where you could see all the baking in action and get numerous pastries not offered in the smaller location.  I took this picture of the cinnamon roll roll to show the boys since that's one of the things we make annually together.  It was probably 10 feet, and so yummy.
 After breakfast, we wandered the streets some more.  This sign made me laugh.
 I also mentioned earlier that Rejkavik, despite being relatively small, is a bit confusing to get around.  Multiple times we were lost, walking for a few hours when our destination was only a few minutes away.  The first time this happened, I remembered being close to an orange crane.  We eventually found an orange crane and thought we were back to our car, but came to realize there were many many orange cranes in the city while we were there.  

 Our last lunch was soup in a bread bowl, again.
 We didn't have high school exchange students on our flight home, but we were in the back, the very back of the plane.
 Greenland was so fun to fly over.  I remember flying over it as a kid and being amazed.  It was just as amazing as an adult.  The east side is covered in snow with huge iceburgs floating in the sea.

And an hour later, you fly over the west coast, which is actually green.
