The elusiveness of Iceland's hidden people became a source of extreme annoyance to Paku. Paku reasoned that given that the people of Iceland make decisions about the placement of roads and aluminum factories based on the location of the hidden people, someone must be able to see them to ensure they are avoiding them!
An increasingly agitated Paku was assured that there are hidden people in evidence at all times in the tiny town of
Vík í Mýrdal on Iceland's southern coast.
A skeptical Paku embarked on the long, scenic drive from Reykjavik to Vik in the wee hours of the morning, though who could even tell since it is never dark in Iceland this time of year.
Fortunately, Paku was not disappointed. There area always hidden people visible in Vik because they have been turned into stone!! Quite some time ago, two trolls were tugging a three masted ship toward shore when the sun came up and they have been frozen in place ever since.
Having finally found some hidden people, Paku had only one remaining Icelandic quest to pursue.
Paku's final task in Iceland was to taste a traditional Icelandic hot dog from Bæjarins beztu pylsur. Paku is pleased to report that it lives up to its reputation as the best hot dog in town.

There are few foods Paku loves nearly as much as bamboo, but lobster and things made with lobster comprise the vast majority of them. Paku's encounter with the lobster soup at Saegreifinn in Reykjavik was a life altering experience. Paku has enjoyed many delicious bowls of lobster soup in his lifetime but this bowl of lobster soup is so delicious he believes it defines the category. This is the lobster soup against which all lobster soups should be compared.
