We need to get to Norway! BTW we have been routed through Frankfurt, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam on our flights to Norway, now, looking up tickets, they want to route us through Reykjavik Iceland!

Why on earth are you going to the "land of the midnight Sun" in the middle of winter, when it's going to be cold and very dark? Sill Icelandic ,or anyother, Volcanoes probably look good in the dark.
