First day in Iceland.

Oh no! Seems I didn't make it very far. . .

Only kidding, here I am in Reykjavik 👍

Art installation in the harbour: called Thufa, or as close as I can get (I don't know if I can get the Icelandic alphabet on this phone). It has steps that spiral round the mound to the top. The shed at the top appears to contain smoked fish. Not sure what it all means!

The Harpa Concert Hall.

Sculpture called "Sun Voyager".

Three weeks to go!


I'm off to Iceland in 3 weeks. 

The itinerary I have planned so far is:

3 nights in Reykjavik which will include the Golden Circle Tour and the Secret Lagoon;

Then driving to Vik in the south and visiting the Skogafoss Waterfall and the Black Beach en route;

The following day off to see the Jokulsárlon Glacier Lagoon, "Diamond Beach" and a glacier Ice Cave Tour;

Next day visit Svartifoss Waterfall and stay at the foot of the mountain which erupted in 2010 called Eyjafjallajökull. Stay here for 2 nights and then fly home.
