1. Yes. Lots of very clean, very cheap water, hot and cold.
2. Er, yes. But only because CCP demanded that we'd have it.
3. Yes, but very expensive. Up to 600 isk (~ $8.5 or 4.5 pounds) per 1/2 liter in bars, down to around 930 isk (~ $13) for a six pack (3 liters) in the government-run liquer store (only the government is allowed to sell booze in stores here).

Yup, count myself and Squarebear in as long as you have:
1 - Running water (hot and clean)
2 - Electricity
3 - Beer.

2. Er, yes. But only because CCP demanded that we'd have it.

Yes FFS, dont buy the water in the stores like all the other tourist idiots. Just drink it from the tab, its just as good.

I never did understand why people had to go into the store and buy water. If you ask me water is water. It doesn't matter whether it comes from a bottle or the tap. Crazy people buyig that bottled stuff. What comes out of the faucet is exactly the same stuff. H2O

Myself and Dragyn2000 from JF are SERIOUSLY thinking about going. We both live in Hawaii and will have to arrange our own travel to an Icelandair stateside terminal (like Boston or JFK). Will there be someone to email or talk to about helping us make specific arrangements like this?

Guess you never tried drinking phoenix water from the tap.
to funny
they say don't drink the water in mexico......well phoenix is but a hop skip away.
Take a pool chlorene tester to phoenix tap water and you'll get a very neat surprise.
Those testers are made a small amount of water. if you put same amount for testing in a large glass of water.........it's off the chart.
If that was a public swiming pool it be closed and deamed toxic and a public health hazard.......but it's ok for them to pump it into your house and tell ya to drink it.

And Chicagoarea water comes from Lake Michigan. Granted I'm sure the water is treated nicely, the beaches still get shut down from E.Coli. Nothing like the thought of drinking water infested with poo  /me goes buy new filter for Brita pitcher

In parts of Warsaw (Poland), the water that comes out of the faucet is rust-brown. From, um, rust. In the pipes.
That answer your question? :D
Anyway, this is looking really tempting. I've always wanted to drop by Iceland, although I think I require a longer stay... still, something to look at. The "extra CCP content patch" would be a nice bonus

I think a room+breakfast in Stockholm is about 50 euro. I'd imagine prices be in similar range in other european countries as well.
