Small or Large??

Iceland isn't a big island, but we needed to rent a car to get around.  After our landing, we headed to AVIS to pick up our 9 passenger van.  Well AVIS had a different idea for us.  They thought we should rent a small car - large enough for 6 bodies to fit in, but no room for luggage.  When we informed them we had reserved and needed the 9 passenger van - a worried look appeared on the AVIS guy's face.  "We are overbooked and are out of 9 passenger vans"  With a big smile he offered a 14 passenger van instead - bigger is always better RIGHT?
Good news is we all fit as did our luggage.  Bad news - Frank has to maneuver the "Beast"(we name all our cars) around very narrow Icelandic roads.  And parking...Well I can't discuss because this is a family blog.
