Journey's End is a 6-part documentary that examines the Icelandic Sagas in
the
context of archeological evidence to determine if there is a historical
basis
for the events described.
Per the promo site: "In Journey`s End,
events from the Icelandic sagas are
explored and put into context with
antiquities that are either in the nature or
in museums. To give insight into
the past, the history of our ancestors will be
scrutinized as well as the
Icelandic nature and folktales.
A narrator will walk through some of the
areas of historical significance,
introduce the assignment of each episode
and talk to various people, e.g.
scholars and local residents. Following
that, history will be discussed in the
light of these previous
conversations."

Here
is video with from scenes from the documentary--there are Icelandic
horses.
So far, I
have only found the release dates for Iceland.
As a little girl, I always wanted a pony for Christmas. Santa never brought me a pony. So in my late 40s, I started taking horseback riding lessons. When I turned 50, I got my first horse, an Icelandic named Blessi (Veigar frá Búðardal). Little did I know how much fun life with an Icelandic was going to be. Blessi has a unique perspective on life. I hope you enjoy reading about it as much as I enjoy Blessi. And you will probably read about my cats from time to time.
