Dickhead!

Oh damn. I wanted to visit the Icelandic(k) – not my joke – Phallological Museum (http://www.phallus.is/) but now that I’ve looked it up on the map and the Lonely Planet Guide I think it’s too far away. [I don’t drive]. See I knew this would happen. This is why I was meant to research a bit more before going on holidays. Who knows, maybe I’ll manage to get there but fuck it’s like the other side of the country. Not even like, it IS the other side. What annoys me is I read that it used to be in the capital but when the guy who runs it retired he took it with him to Húsavík, meaning The Bay of Houses. Shit, the more I read the more interesting it (the location) sounds. Next time perhaps. It‘s actually near a national park that you can do volunteer work in. That was going to be my original plan for going to Iceland. So I wouldn‘t be doing it totally alone, and volunteering is nice too of course! But I missed out on booking the date I wanted to do and the only free one was in June, too early for me and it would have been too rushed. Anyway, I tell myself if I enjoy Iceland this time I will come again. I could still try the ‘‘Conservation Holiday‘‘ route. I don‘t mind doing something useful on my holidays. You can go whale watching up there too. I‘m going to email the museum after I post this. See if they think a day trip is doable. I‘m going to show my ignorance of distance and travel in a foreign land. Yeah for me! I wonder if they‘ll get back to me. Or better yet if they‘ll pick me and drop me off. Wouldn‘t that be nice? Hmm. Silly girl.

P.S. The museum does not have human specimens, yet. (I thought I'd share some, below, at least). From what I've read online - always a reliable source - there are a couple of people willing to donate once they've died, (obviously). The photo on the left is from the museum. The collection is of animals from Iceland.
