Reykjavík - Mosfellsbær

Reported by Uddipan Brown 30.0 km

We started our day with older students from school Fellaskóli

Dagurinn hófst í Fellaskóla

Happy teachers make a happy school!

Running to the next school on beautiful bike roads in the Reykjavik area.

Guess the favourite form of transport at Icelandic schools.

Suren introduces the runner's country of origin guessing game.

These kids can really run!

Krakkarnir í Ártúnsskóla geta svo sannarlega hlaupið!

On the way to the museum.

Áleiðis að Árbæjarsafni

Hey Buddy!

At the museum.

The Director kindly showed us around.

Lunchtime!

We usually sit on the grass at the side of the road, but when in Iceland....

Uddipan getting in touch with his inner Viking.

Everyone got inspired to do the same!

An early Icelandic photo booth perhaps?

The students of Ingunnarskóli school met us outside.

Nemendur Ingunnarskóla tóku á móti okkur fyrir utan skólann

Joy to the world!

That is quite a hill!

Halfway up.

We made it!

The delicate beauty of Iceland. On the way to Foldaskóli school

Áleiðis að Foldaskóla í Grafarvoginum, þar sem við hittum krakka úr Regnbogalandi, frístundaheimili Foldaskóla og Kastala, frístundaheimili Húsaskóla

Three best friends.

Spot the Peace Runner.

Some call it the Pizza Run! The day care center of Foldaskóli fed us really well.

Regnbogaland, frístundaheimili Foldaskóla bauð upp á pizzu. Kærar þakkir!

We came, we saw, we conquered :-)

Eye to eye with the founder of the Peace Run.

Flowers for my best friends.

A boy's paradise.

Get set, go!

And the winner is...

On the road again to our last school of the day.

At Lágafellskóli day care centre

Frístundasel Lágafellsskóla

Best buddies...

Last moments in the life of this certificate.

We meet with Hjalti Úrsus Árnason formerly Iceland's strongest man. Such gentleness with so much power.

Við rákumst á Hjalta Úrsus á leið okkar og áttum gott spjall um frið og hvernig það fer saman að vera sterkur og friðsæll, rétt eins og Sri Chinmoy talaði líka um

Up in the hills on our last run of the day.

Dinner at Ning's kindly given to us by the management. Thank you so much!

Nings bauð okkur upp á kvöldmatinn. Kærar þakkir!

Bon appetit!
