It’s hard to believe that our time here is almost over. It’s always seemed so far in the future and also so long. Crazy to think tomorrow will be 11 weeks here and also our flights home. I’ve had a great time but also I’m excited to get back, to SDC, to visit my sister…
Yesterday we took Grandma and Grandpa to the airport. It’s been a fun time with them here and it’s gone fast. Sage was sad to see them go. It was rainy all evening and morning, but by the time we drove west from Reykjavik it was clearing and starting to be sunny. We stopped at…
This morning Steve went on a run around Vík in the morning and then we drove back to Reykjavik. On the way, we stopped at Seljalandsfoss and Nathusagil to wander around, look at the waterfalls, and have lunch. As always it was beautiful. We had lunch and Sage played with Grandma and Grandpa. She is…
This morning we piled into one campervan and drove to Jokularsalon Bay for a zodiac boat tour around the glacial lagoon. When we arrived the fog was so thick you couldn’t see anything, but the boats were still going. Sage is too young to go, so Steve stayed behind this time. The fog was kinda…
Today we woke up at a very busy Skogar campground. There are definitely a lot of tourists here, especially in the south of Iceland. Once we were ready, we went to explore the waterfall, and then climbed up the tall staircase to the top. From there we continued up the path a bit looking at…
Today we took the bus to Porsmork. The ride was beautiful and fun as always. We sat in the very back which was extra bumpy, but allowed us to see more. When we arrived we regrouped and decided on the 5.5 mile red loop, which is probably one of my favorite (if not the favorite)…
We woke up this morning, consolidated into one van and took it on the ferry to Vestmannaeyjabaer Islands. It was clearer and warmer than it had ever been when we’ve been on the ferry, so we went outside and up on the deck in the front and back, watching the birds and the boat coming…
Today was a great and busy day! We picked up my parents at the airport, went shopping and picked up their campervan. Sage was very excited to see Grandma and Grandpa. Usually she’s happy to sit in the car with me while Steve shops. This time as soon as Grandma and Grandpa left, she wasn’t…
We are back in Reykjavik to meet my parents at the airport tomorrow. We decided to get here a day early and explore a bit. When we’ve been here before we’ve seen some cool parks and playgrounds. We went to the Reykjavík Zoo and Park, which was mostly farm animals and a small amusement park….
The weather was beautiful again today. We slept in. When Sage woke up she wasn’t feeling well. But after a little time and food, she was back to her usual self. We took turns running while Sage played on the playground with Minnie. From there we drove east to Seljalandsfoss to explore a hike we…
