We are being spoiled by the great missionary couple in Iceland - the Wohlgemuth's. The Church put them to work to get us a car and apartment. We now have a brand new Skoda Fabia Combi - pretty sharp looking isn't it? There is even a set of mounted studded tires for winter driving - November thru April. They are also looking for an apartment for us in the city of Selfoss - a town of about 6600. I think the car is for two reasons - we will cover a large area of country and two it rains most of the time.
Today we went to Church in the Newport Oregon Ward and the speakers were from another ward reporting on their mission. As soon as they started talking we knew they served with our good friends now President and Sister Boggess of the Nigeria Enugu Mission. When we talked to them we also found our their daughter and son-in-law just finished 3 years in Iceland with the US government. They said Iceland has a great need for senior couples so that must be why we are going there.

David said he has heard many Skoda jokes here is a link and a joke for you. Many of these are for Europeans only.
How do you double the value of a skoda?
Chuck a penny into it.

The office elder and AP's drove Skoda's in Romania and if they can stand up to them which they did, I am fine with a Skoda.
Looks Like a really nice car!!!
Skodas in the eighties in Europe were like Yugos in America, just not as nice. But hey, it sure beats walking
After 18 months of walking everywhere we went in Romania including grocery shopping, any car will be greatly appreciated.
Personally, I think that they are trying to bribe you into eating the Puterified Shark by buying you a nice car...let me know how it tastes!
Nice try but even a car won't do that!
