Assembly Day
July 13, 2021 Filed under Curious
After catching up on sleep, checking in with work, and dealing with correspondence, it was time for the traditional (by now) all-day bicycle assembly, where I very carefully turn a box and several bags of parts into a packed touring bicycle.
It was still light out when I rolled the complete bike outside. Well… Of course.
For my first outing I left the big bags and camping gear in the hotel. It was time to scoot around town and see the sights, and see how much I remembered.
There was that familiar, scintillating line of the ocean in the distance…
There’s that giant sword, like a radio beacon for tourists…
There’s the hilarious Icelandic graffiti. Perhaps a few new scribbles since last time…
But hang on. There’s something new this time…
Okay, that giant orange light definitely wasn’t there two years ago.
