Reykjavik

First day in Iceland, spent in Reykjavik. The area surrounding the airport is old lava rocks and moss. I think we will see lots more of that! The Hotel Storm kept our luggage while we walked the main downtown shopping street and then joined a food walking tour by Wake Up Reykjavik. We saw lots of the downtown and ate “small plates” at 4 restaurants. The highlight was the famous Icelandic hotdog from the oldest hotdog stand in the city. Last stop was a beautiful, modern church which offers the highest vantage point in the city ( if you climb up the steeple). The organist was playing so we sat and listened for a bit. A bonus is the sunny day with mild temperatures. And we stayed awake all day on 2 hours sleep!Leggi altro
