Iceland

Iceland: world of mysteries.

They do things that they don’t do here in my hometown of Brooklyn. They ride on Viking horses. They eat fermented shark, whale, puffin and some eel. I had a great experience in Iceland. I rode on a viking horse, I had whale, puffin and some really weird tasting shark…I tried to eat it, but I had to spit it out! Ha, crazy me!

Well, I have something for all of you that are reading: always try new things, or life is not worthwhile.

    Oh Emmy I love your blog. It is so clear and informative, only a really smart girl could do this.

    I would love to go to Iceland someday and ride a viking horse, but not eat eel or puffin, but I have had shark meat and it is not so good.

    Looking forward to seeing you and your family for Christmas. We will have so much FUN.

    lOVE, grandma carol

    Fermented shark sounds pretty bad to me. But I’m curious: what did the eel and puffin taste like? Fishy? Or chicken-y? Or something else? How are Viking horses different from other horses? I have never been to Iceland so I don’t know these things.

    Love,

    Aunt Jan

    Puffin? Fermented shark? Do you watch Bizarre Foods? I think you’d be the perfect co-host with such an adventurous palette. Forge on Emmy!

    Emerson–we went to Iceland a couple years ago and couldn’t have described your experience better. I’d like to see your comments on Foie Gras! xo Jill, Phil, Wayne and Fi
