And I thought the photo album I posted from yesterday would have the most pictures. Looks like today beat it! We have got to be the luckiest tourists that ever toured Iceland. Today we hit a bunch of near snags, but bypassed them all. I will start at the beginning. (duh) We woke up to mostly darkness (again) I was able to get a photo of our ocean view room before we left as the light came out. I posted that. But we couldn't see that at night, and as you can s...

So this morning we started early. It always seems so much earlier than it is, like 3 in the morning to something because it is still so dark out. But, we left at about 8:30am. Breakfast was really good, I shared photos of all the different breakfast options. Very fancy as far as 'Continental" style is concerned. This place was cool too, because in the shared room where we hung out and waited for the Northern Lights, there was a wipe off board where you could put ...

Today we left our hotel in Reykjavik and began our tour. The other three people that were supposed to join our group did not ever check into the Hotel, so did not make the tour.

Today was another early, long and cold day. But that is not to say it was bad. It was freaking EPIC!!! We got up early, yet again. And was able to go down to breakfast, but take our time this time. We called for a cab to pick us up to bring us to the other hotel so we wouldn't have to walk with our big bag in the snow. Plus, it was just a cheap, five minute drive. We were able to store our bags at the hotel since our room wasn't ready yet. And we waited for our ...

Knowing we would be super tired after our layover, and wanting to make sure we had enough time to do this while we were in Iceland, I booked two premium tickets to the Blue Lagoon for our first day. Now of course this was dependent on our flight getting in on time, and most importantly, our ability to get out of bed after only a couple hours of sleep. But we did it, and it was worth it. We woke up REALLY early, as breakfast was included with our hotel stay, and ...
