Fredk's Mystery Man has entertained and instructed us for years, but where does the poor old fella (MM, I mean, not Fredk) go on his time off? I may have found the answer.

This is from the harbourside path in Reykjavik. MM and dozens of his relatives were taking the air and helpfully showing us the way into town.

A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

Well spotted, Phil! Yes, the mystery men have been known to frequent that northern land. The paucity of trees means that it can be hard for the Icelanders to judge distances. Always keen to help set the scale, they are! laugh.gif
