Iceland Delicacies.

Dear Boys and Girls,

My plane landed quite early in Iceland this morning so I spent the first part of the day walking around exploring Reyjavik by foot (I will tell you all about that later!).  It was pretty cold and rainy, so all that walking made me build up an appetite.  For lunch I walked down to the harbour for some "pylsa", or hot dogs.  I had mine "Eina medn ollu" which means "with the works".  A "pylsa eina medn ollu" comes with fried and fresh onions, ketchup, remoulade sauce, all topped off with mustard. 

The pylsa stand I visited is very popular with the local residents and there is always a line. 

For dessert I went to the local supermarket and bought some "skyr".  It is an Icelandic yogurt made from skim milk, but it is actually thicker and creamier then regular yogurt.  The good thing about it is that it is full of vitamins and protein making it a very healthy dessert.  I think I will have to have some "skyr" everyday!  Is there a dessert you wish you could have everyday?

Hope you are having fun at school,
Mr. Pimentel
