I go to Ethiopia, Mali, Senegal, Swaziland ... but why Iceland. Because we promised our grandchildren we would take them on a trip, minus siblings, when they turn 12. And the oldest chose Iceland. He loves science, is interested in the geothermal activity in Iceland and wanted to see, very badly, the Northern Lights. So did I.

I look for new products, new designs, inspiration, for Creative Women, my textile business. Glaciers, waterfalls, incredible vistas, folk musems? What a treat to be in a country that has both ... wonderful stores and young designers, a fantastic concert hall, lovely old metal clad houses, and the scenery that rivals my home state ... Vermont.

No words needed ... a few of the sites we enjoyed.

We saw so much, but we never saw the Northern Lights. Maybe I'll see them on my next trip to Ethiopia.
