Women's day off in Iceland

Today I participated in a truly remarkable event. It's called the Women's day off, and was first held 30 years ago. Women stopped working that day, be it at offices or homes, and stormed into the center of Reykjavík, demanding equal rights and equal salary. 25.000 women shoved up that day, young and old, making it the biggest group meeting in the countries history. Today around 50.000 women joined the fight !! It was amazing to see, all these women gathered together in one place !!! All my sisters, my mother and my daughter were there. I must admit I was getting cold in the end, but it was worth a bit of discomfort. Go go girls !!!!!!!!!!!!
