This morning my wife and I arrived in Iceland where we will be spending the week. It’s somewhere we have both always wanted to go. Today we have mostly slept and explored Reykjavik but the rest of the week we will be driving around seeing volcanoes, geysers and waterfalls! Here are the first few photos I took on my phone. 🙂
How strange, I have never seen the cathedral before, but now 2 people -1 a friend – have posted photos of it in the last few days! It’s stunning. Have a great holiday ☺️
Thank you! Iceland is definitely becoming more popular lately, I’ve only been here a day and I love it! 🙂
Iceland is fantastic. We were there for a week in June and had a brilliant time. I’ve put up quite a few posts about it, including some more unusual things to see incase you’re interested. Hope you have a great time.
Thank you so much! I have just added a few extra things to my list after seeing your posts. Will take your lead and skip the Blue Lagoon, didn’t realise it was that pricey! Looks like you had better weather than me, your photos are wonderful. 🙂
Glad to have been of help! We were very lucky with the weather, a completely unexpected heatwave. It’s such a beautiful country that photography is easy.
How exciting! Can’t wait to see even more photos.
More to come tomorrow! 🙂
We LOVED Iceland! I’ve got a bunch of posts on my blog as well though we did mostly the group tours. I agree with the above comment about skipping the Blue Lagoon. Try to find one that the locals use. My husband also wishes he’d done the scuba diving and had we not been traveling with small kids at the time (they were 6 and 9 then), we would have done the snowmobiling and glacier climbing (min age was 10 for most of those which one of our kids could have pulled off but not the other). Have a great time!
Your glacier photos are amazing! I hadn’t planned to go on a tour up there but reconsidering it now (if we ever get a dry day). We are going to go to the Vik area like you did and see the blank sand beaches and also do the Golden Circle in the next couple of days!
Very nice. Looking forward for more. Have a safe and pleasant trip 🙂
Thank you! More photos to come very soon. 🙂
I love Iceland! Your photos are making me want to go back for another visit! I thought the Blue Lagoon was fun, if a bit pricey (but what isn’t in Iceland?) and a good way to recover from jet lag.
I’m amazed at how many people love Iceland and have already been and it’s making me wish I’d gone sooner! We are hoping to do some swimming in geothermal water in the next few days to relax! 🙂
Iceland on my bucket list, Tom. How is it I seem to be following your lead all the time? Very envious! What’s up with that guy and the rock?!
It’s beautiful but raining non stop which as a Brit I can deal with! Wonderful landscapes. I really want to know more about the guy with the rock but there was no information by it.
Looks stunning! You have to give us a full report when you get back. Cat suffered a bit in the heat in Greece (goes with living in Lancashire most of her life) so we may seek cooler climes for next year
I would definitely recommend it here, it’s absolutely stunning! Sorry that Cat suffered in the heat, that definitely wouldn’t be a problem in Iceland!
Iceland is fantastic! Enjoy!
Thank you! I’ve only been here a day but already love it! 🙂
Very interesting art all of them!
It’s a wonderful place! 🙂
