Let me describe -21oF for you


Our last day in NYC was cold. Like really cold. Then we went to the top of the Empire State Building. Let's just say it was colder up there. It was -11 F, -21 F with the windchill. I think this pretty much sums it up:



But the view from the top was pretty great!



I took a little video of going most of the way around the top. Not that interesting, but you can see the view pretty well and hear the wind whipping.



And get a good whipping by the wind we did. NYC was so cold that when we got to Reykjavik early the next morning, it seemed warm at 32oC! Little did we know that Iceland also has wind.... and snow....
...Until tomorrow, when we find our weary travelers in the southern Icelandic countryside!
