My international adventure began with 24-hours in Iceland. While most people head for the waterfalls, I found myself in search of street art and neon…
I landed crazy early and hit the scene… how fitting, I stumbled upon Roadhouse Reykjavik.
I ran into Peter Griffin… he told me they kicked him out of Roadhouse when he asked for a Pawtucket Patriot Ale.

Some folks were appalled to see me spending my time in Iceland at a bar, but that’s just like, your opinion, man.
Gravity defying pins.
Spin the wheel and win eight beers, or nothing at all.
A closer look at them there pins.
Do you find the female form intimidating Mr. Lebowski?

Man of the year in the restroom. Is he right behind me?
