Iceland, 2: Another Camper! Another Costco!

Driving back from Geldingadalsgos, it began to rain, and we noticed the camper's windshield wipers weren't working. We headed forthwith back to Lava cars and campers, where the mechanic indicated the repair would take some hours. So we reluctantly moved into camper #2, this time checking everything we could think of to make sure it all worked. As it turned out we missed a few things, but that's in the next chapter. After getting settled, again, we headed out to Reykjavik's Costco, en route to the famed Golden Circle.

New camper! More hours lost!

Documenting its flaws...one of the things you notice about nearly
every rental in Iceland is the door damage; the wind is so strong
it whips the door out of your hand and beyond the limits of the
hinge, damaging both door and fender...repair is a considerable 
expense; not covered by any insurance you can buy

Now at Reykjavik's Costco, out in the burbs (across from the Ikea)

Just in case the camper doesn't work out...sleeps 12

Pretty much all the usual Kirkland merchandise; but not at the
usual US prices; the poulet roti is $12.07; not $4.99

Lots of lamb, however

We settled for a gelato
