| Number 10 | |
 Even though you are an American, you still fit in. |
|
| Number 9 | |
 You get to watch the Eurovison Program in the composer's very own parent's home  and then, with his little sister, greet Svenni at the airport upon his arrival from Turkey. |
|
| Number 8 | |
 Everyone looks like they should be in a painting. (Even Iceland's Eurovision singer Jonsi's little sister.) |
|
| Number 7 | |
 Football is really football. (Hey, it's Friðrik who will star in Going Fishing.) |
|
| Number 6 | |
 The drivers are so polite. (It's Friðrik's little sister, Birta.) |
|
| Number 5 | |
 Everyone invites you in for coffee or tea. (Like Óli's aunt.) |
|
| Number 4 | |
 There is always something to photograph, even yourself. |
|
| Number 3 | |
 The restaurants have the best views and the best company. (Like Óli.) Hafið bláa Restaurant (click "Myndir" for photos) |
|
| Number 2 | |
 You never know when you are going to run into a Viking at school. (Like Aron Trausti Björnsson.) |
|
| . . . and the Number 1 reason why I like Ísland. |
|
 The ladies touch your heart and cry when you leave. (Like Birta.) |
|
| What kind of camera did I use to take these photos? A simple easy-to-use point and shoot digital camera (except for the shot by Gunnella of me and Svenni and Ragga.)  Canon S500 |
