Iceland Update

Another cool, windy day in Iceland. Heard about the heat wave across the US, hope it breaks in time for Grandma's...

Today's slate of events:
• 60 min easy around the town of Heimaey in the Westman Islands.
• Explored homes covered by a 1973 volcanic eruption
• Ferry ride to mainland Iceland
• Visited Selfoss (huge waterfall north of Reykjavik)
• Visited Geysir (see below)
• toured the site of the first parliament in Thingfeller
• dinner in Reykjavik (whale, monkfish, shrimp, and vegetables, all on a stick)

Scheduled to do a little trail running with the Iceland Running Club tomorrow morning, and then some sightseeing around town.
