We woke up today planning to get on a bus and retrieve our rental car at the City Hostel. After missing our bus and realizing that many streets were closed for today's festivities, we said "what the hey?, let's stay one more day in this beautiful city and see some parades and what not". What we didn't know we were gonna get a chance to see was something miraculous. Something not often witnessed by our American east coast eyes. WORLD"S STRONGEST MAN COMPETITION. That's right, with the MET-RX sponsored shirts on and everything, we saw 5 large portioned men line up to compete in a "who can pull the ice cream truck the fastest" competition. The entire event was being announced not far away in Icelandic but I'm pretty sure the announcer said something like this" ahhh and here is Bjorn, he has been drinking 4 litres of milk every hour and eats 5 dozen eggs and thirty hot dogs a day for the past week to train for this celebratory event. He will be the fastest ice cream truck puller and become the best patriot in the country!"
