Anxious!

So, I woke up this morning, got dressed and now...I have 11 hours til I leave from BWI, 8 hours til I get to BWI, and 6 hour until I leave for BWI. holy crap holy crap holy crap. I'm all packed up, suitcases weighing in under 50 pounds each and the carry on backpack that I got at REI on tuesday is all set with my Iceland adventure pack.

I hunted around for hours yesterday trying to find the best deal on hotels in the Keflavik area, as I had decided that a trip to Reykjavik would just be too complicated (it's about 45 minutes from the airport, and I leave early as crap on Saturday). So, turns out, that Iceland Air must be in cahoots with everyone around there...or just keeps an eye on prices closely. Their rooms were cheaper than almost everyone at their Flughotel that is 5 minutes from the airport, their package to take you over to the blue lagoon is cheaper than independently hopping a bus there and back...etc...

So yeah, I get in at 7am, then have to pretend that I don't feel like it is 2 or 3 am and be useful enough to do stuff and not just sleep all day in Iceland.
