Photos from Independence Day in Reykjavik

I am so proud of myself for having finally done what I've been meaning to do for ages: Taken photos, and uploaded them.
Today Icelanders are celebrating 61 years of independence from Denmark. I was in town today (like most other people, it seems), and I took some photos. While I was at it I took some pictures of a few of my favorite places. I also bumped into my boss and one of my teachers, and I photographed them as well, along with the place where I work, etc.
This is the first time I post a photo gallery that gives such a glimpse of what much of my personal environment is like, so I suppose one could say that I am in a way taking my website to a slightly more personal level. I do prefer to think of it as "giving readers a glimpse of my reality" instead.

Well here is the album: Icelandic Independence Day Photos

Great photos, Maria! They sure made me want to visit Reykjavik & Iceland again and I noticed some familiar faces among the pictures =)

Take care and post more photos like these.

Love the pictures. Go eat some of that chocolate for me, will ya? After all, it's made from beans, milk, and sugar- which comes from a plant. I mean c'mon. And you'll be supporting the local economy.
