There is too much - I'll sum up. We woke up a few mornings at 2am for some pseudo-sunrise photos at the black beaches and viking village set. One day, we were startled by a huge reindeer in the road. It was toasty all day, but those mornings froze my toesies off.
We saw so many beautiful waterfalls and streams Roger wishes he could've fished in. Most of them were just off the glaciers or mountains, but we stopped at a couple notable ones - the big boys. One morning we went to a birdwatching spot and heard a heavy rain, but saw that it was thousands of bugs hitting the window. (That stop was not long.)
Kaylee and I stopped at the rainbow church and some cool turf houses. We learned some good history and wondered how babies were made with all the women sleeping in separate beds. Somehow we found a fishing shop so we could get some new flies for Rog (even a few thrown in for free :)
The diamond beach and ice lagoons were full of seals and dive-bombing birds that were cool to watch. Most of the driving was pretty chill, but we did run into a few 7km 1-lane tunnels that were a bit sketchy.
In the land of fire and ice, the hot is mixed into the cold. We swam in the nature baths and visited a volcano that was active until December of last year (and still steaming a little).
We saw a natural fortress Borkarvirki and climbed all over it and then went to my new favorite restaurant Fridheimar. This place ships out 2 tons of tomatoes per day, every day of the year. And they had all you can eat tomato soup and bread - like GOOD bread.
