Reykjavik ~ Part Two

Our last day in Iceland has arrived. Instead of driving to another waterfall, we decided to stay local and continue to explore Reykjavik.

We started the tour with a trip to downtown where we explored local shops. I always got excited when I saw reminders of home and seeing this Dunkin’ Donuts made me very happy!

One of our only meals in Iceland was at a restaurant known for its bread bowl soups. We were lucky to get a seat since there is a strict no waiting allowed policy. The soup was delicious. We finished it off with a hot chocolate before heading back into the cold.

There is this weird hill on the coastline that I read about on a travel review site. We headed there and climbed to the top where we were rewarded with some awesome views.

Our last stop was this random hot springs along the coast. It maintains its warm temperature year around. We almost decided not to get in but what fun would that have been? I went first and ended up getting soaked when I sat down to take my socks off. Dave was next. He made the mistake of running all the way back to the car in bare feet. Did I mention that it had started snowing by this point? It was a perfect way to end our epic trip to Iceland!Read more
