As part of my golden trifecta, I try to visit a
library, cemetery, and grocery store in every country. Since it was my second
trip to Iceland, I knew I had to hit this mark. Having already visited a
cemetery the first time around, and getting to view my fantasy library in
Isafjordur, I originally planned to check out Bonus – a discount grocery story
with a wonderfully intoxicated (or stoned) pig as a mascot. That pig’s one-eyed
smirk alone made me want to go to Bonus.
But, things don’t always go as you planned.
After our flight from Isafjordur to Reykjavik was
cancelled, and we had already eaten at the two restaurants in town, we decided
to swap out our grocery odyssey at Bonus for one in Isafjorfur called Samkaup. This ended up being a great choice
because Samkaup had plenty to keep us entertained.
