went to Iceland a few years back
went to some thermal baths thing, giant hot outdoor pool etc. it was a little weird going there, driver was odd... turned out he was a foreign guy they'd sent because the locals were refusing to go due to volcanic activity... few weeks later the place was swallowed by lava
just got back from Poland... our trip to auschwitz was rearranged (last min) to start at 5am.. got back after it and I went to sleep, she was scrolling on phone next to me.... she heard some bangs but thought nothing of it... 20min later she wakes me up, it was that shooter guy on his rampage... we were right next to the square, there were bodies about 100 yards from our hotel room :-o
awkwardly we'd booked to go to a shooting range the next day.... still went, it had been booked for ages :-[
i think it's the opposite of a curse, I saved us from the lava and shooter.
