May. 18th, 2006 06:32 amI've had strangely lucid dreams lately, always just before my alarm goes off.
Last night I dreamed I was in Iceland. Mostly on the base, in Keflavik. I was looking around trying to see the stuff that was there when I lived there. Of course, in my dream it didn't look anything like it had in real life, but hey. I ran into some nice people still living there who let me use their couch to sleep on. The whole base had fallen apart--the school was closed, and all the buildings were falling down and boarded up and things like that. At one point, though, I was standing on a hill with the people I was staying with, that really does exist, but the buildings at the bottom looked like they'd had a fire in them and again, were boarded up, and I was talking about how my brothers and I used to sled down that hill, and then try to come to a complete stop in a hurry because there was a parking lot at the bottom, but one time my brother didn't stop soon enough and whacked face-first into a parked car, and the sled kept going! Which really did happen once. Thankfully he wasn't going full speed or he'd have broken his nose or arm.
The base is, as I've mentioned here before, actually closing this fall.
But in another part of my dream I was riding this bus around Iceland, and I got off at a stop in Rekjavik (or was it Akureyri?) and everything looked just like when I'd been there before and I was strangely creeped out. Except nothing looked anything like it does in real life, but in a dream, you don't notice that kind of thing. Eventually, in my dream, I caught another bus back to Keflavik. Aaaand then my alarm went off.
And now I have urge to take a month off of work and go backpacking around Iceland. Anyone wanna join me? :^)
