Chapter 1350 1333. It's Night (45)
Icelanders are the best at playing and eating among the Nordic countries, and there are a lot of local delicacies.
"We have a wide variety of dairy products, such as cheese and yogurt, which are high in quality and cheap. Of course, it is said that Sunset Town also produces great dairy products, but there is no SKYR in Sunset Town, so you can buy some and try."
Skyr is an Icelandic specialty, similar to yoghurt, which is a delicious mixture of skim milk and yeast.
As soon as he heard that it was not available in Sunset Town, Wang Bo immediately bought a lot.
The female shopping guide squinted her eyes and smiled happily. She thought that Wang Bo was persuaded by herself, but in fact, Lao Wang wanted to go back and taste if it was really that delicious. If it was delicious, Sunset Town would also produce it.
"We have a wide variety of sweets in Iceland, and chocolate is the best. Some sweets have a unique taste and are definitely worth a try." After entering the sweets area, the female shopping guide began to introduce.
"We have a very unique snack here, I believe the little princess Daier will like it, that is, the haddock is clear and clean, then air-dried, turned into strips, and eaten with cream."
The little loli asked with bright eyes: "Is this a snack? How does it taste like Bi Xingkong?"
The female shopping guide said: "We also have starry sky sticks, but to be honest, Dai'er, comparing starry sky sticks with our special snacks is a bit insulting to our snacks."
Nothing to say, Lao Wang knew what to do when he looked at Dai'er's little eyes, and immediately bought a bunch of cod cream snacks.
"Since you're in Iceland, you three, you can't miss our smoked fish. Our smoked fish is famous all over the world..."
"Salmon and smoked trout are the most delicious delicacies, and they are the first-class foods that every tourist to Iceland must try. In Europe, only four-star hotels provide salmon for breakfast."
In the seafood market area, there are also large chunks of thick fish placed there.
Little Loli asked strangely after seeing it: "What kind of fish is this? It's so big."
Wang Bo guessed it at a glance: "This is whale meat."
Dai'er was silent for a moment, then shook her head firmly and said, "We don't eat whale meat. Our teacher said that humans shouldn't kill whales. Their numbers have dropped terribly."
Wang Bo agrees with this aspect, but he will not interfere with Icelandic whaling.
Commercial whale hunting resumed in Iceland in 2006, and much of the whale meat is exported to other countries and to satisfy curious tourists, such as them.
Eva shook her head at Del, signaling her not to continue.
Most Icelanders support the killing of whales, because many locals depend on fishing for their livelihood, and whales have a very negative impact on the general fishing industry. In short, it is mainly a conflict of interest.
Seeing the whale meat, little Lolita lost her interest.
Wang Bo saw that his purchases were almost done, so he went to buy some fresh vegetables, then he thanked the female shopping guide, and the three left the supermarket.
After driving back, they prepared lunch.
Dad Bo asked, "Where shall we go shopping today?"
Wang Bo shook his head and said, "I'm not going anywhere today, Dad, let's have a good rest and go out tomorrow."
They flew from the Antarctic Circle to the Arctic Circle. Although they took a special plane, they were still very tired. The space on the plane was too small, and they were either awake or asleep.
Well now, their residence is extremely quiet, surrounded by neat woods, some distance from the city, only occasionally some birds chirping, it is a good place to rest.
For lunch, Wang Bo cooked two simple fried vegetables, and then ate them with smoked fish, dried fish and cured meat.
Eva bought scallops, and Dad Bo saw that they were not cooked and said, "Aren't you going to eat this today?"
Wang Bo opened a shell, poured some brandy into it, stuffed wine and meat into his mouth, and said with a smile, "Dad, just eat it raw like this, it tastes very fresh."
Father Bo does not accept this way of eating: "Your father and I have lived by the sea all our lives. We eat raw crab roe and live shrimp. In the past, the pollution was light, so we often ate it this way. But after eating it, it is easy to have diarrhea, so forget it."
Wang Bo persuaded: "People in Iceland say that this is a gift from the Arctic Ocean, and what you eat is the umami of the ocean, so you won't have diarrhea."
Father Bo waved his hand and said: "You youngsters, eat it. Your mother and I can't stand it. Eva had better not eat it. The body needs time to recover after giving birth."
After a good meal, they wandered around.
The location of this small villa is very good. Looking south, you can overlook the whole Reykjavik, and looking west, you can see the vast sea.
There are several sailboats floating in the sea, and some large fishing boats come and go from the port.
There is a telescope in the villa, you can watch the stars, the aurora and the sea.
Wang Bo adjusted the direction of the large telescope to look towards the sea, and said, "Hey, why are there all kinds of flags on this ship? I saw our five-star red flag."
Eva said: "Reykjavik, in Icelandic, means a smoking port city. This is the gateway to the Arctic Ocean. Every year, many ships from Europe and Asia enter the Arctic Ocean to fish for seafood. They will pass here."
Before three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky gradually darkened.
There is a sun room on the second floor of the small villa, surrounded by glass, Wang Bo dragged a chair inside and waited to watch the aurora.
As a result, he waited for two or three hours but didn't get the aurora, only the sky full of stars.
Old Wang is a person who likes to watch the stars, but he was tired of watching them when he was in Sunset Town. He didn't come to Iceland to watch the stars.
He wanted to go online, but sadly found that there was no internet connection here.
Reykjavik is not a sunset town. There is a smart city wireless network system covering the whole area. The mobile phone signal on the mountain is very average, and there is only a 2G network, so he can't surf the Internet at all.
This discovery made Wang Bo a little stupid. He said to Eva: "What should I do now? There are still thirteen or four hours before dawn, right? How can I pass the time?"
Eva rubbed her eyes dimly and said, "Well, sleep, and it will be dawn when you wake up."
Wang Bo lay on the sofa speechless, while Eva was yawning and ready to go to bed.
Although the night falls early, Reykjavik is not deserted at all. Many people may not think that this city close to the North Pole is one of the busiest nightlife spots in Europe.
He'd read it before coming, and there were plenty of travel magazines and travel journals about what's going on in the city's friendly bars and nightlife spots.
No matter what the season, as night falls, the downtown area quickly becomes buzzing with activity.
Today is Friday, and people will usher in a two-day weekend holiday, so the nightlife is more abundant tonight.
Wang Bo had already seen it when he went shopping during the day. There are bars, coffee shops, dance halls and other places in the downtown area, but he can't leave his family here to play by himself.
Zhuang Ding and Xiao Wang are full of energy, but the baby sleeps very lightly, and Lao Wang dare not tease them. Whenever there is a sound, the baby will blow the horn...
