Iceland vs. Japan.  Nothing like any handball I have known in the past.  It&#8217;s played with 7 people on each team and on an open court and the game appears to be a combination of soccer, basketball, and hockey.  Actually quite interesting and exciting.  Iceland won 32 to 24 (or something close to that).  We drank Gull beer, a local pale lager that we didn&#8217;t really care for &#8212; except it was dyed blue in support of the Iceland team.
