December 23. Picking up some Jólabjór (Christmas beer) from the shops. Admiring the huge crowds out doing last minute shopping. Eating Skata (putrefied skate) with the extended family in a fish salting plant in Hafnafjörður. Feeding them "Ástralsku Jólamatur" (Apricot balls and rum balls) Rye bread and potatos.

Roaming the Hafnarfjörður graveyard, all lit up for christmas.

Admiring the christmas lights on all the buildings.

Questioning what sort of crazy vegan whackjob writes english vegan graffiti outside a grocery store in Iceland.

Looking at all the trawlers in harbour for Christmas.

Snow.
