Ok finally realised that this wonderful long weekend is going to take more than one blog, so will show you the site in Part 1 and then cover the music and fun in Part 2 :o)
Day 1 - Reyjkavik
The Harbour and the only train in Iceland (why are there no trains Kate?)
Main Shopping Street and view from very huge hill I had to climb to get to the church.
Halmskirke or something like that with a statue of Leifer "......sson"
Luckily there was a lift to get to the top of the steeple and loads of magnificent views.
Great scenery of capital city and second pic is our hotel.
And some more.....
Day 2 - Excursion to Kerio Crater, Geysir and Guilfoss Waterfall
Kerio Crater (well second pic, first one just looked nice and it was right next door)
Geysirs with first one being "Little Geysir" and it bubbling up close.
Next is Strokkur before and after gushing!
Guilfoss Waterfalls which as Kate says was the only time we were cold. As you can see it directly comes from the longest glacier in Iceland. I managed to get quite a good picture of it.
Magnificent breathtaking (bloody cold) waterfall.
Day 3 - The Blue Lagoon
You arrive to what can only be described as barren lava land as first pic shows to beautiful blue lagoon with slimy mud and lovely milky blue water.
Kate Relaxing in first pic and second one showed the natural spring in the middle of the lagoon that generates geothermal heat.
Only pool I have ever seen a lifeguard where hi vis jacket, gloves and hat
We had such fun :o)
Short and sweet and to the point. Now the lengthy one on the music starts...."Oh my God I can't believe it" - its 4.30am. Nite x
