The Golden Circle!

Yesterday we drove the Golden Circle which is Iceland’s most popular tourist route and I fell into a lake! The route consists of Pingvellir National Park, Geysir, Gulfoss waterfall and a number of smaller stop offs. It was the first sunny day we have had here meaning I got to see Iceland with a blue sky for the first time. I hope you like the photos!

Gulfoss waterfall with a beautiful rainbow!

The Strokkur geyser erupts every 8-10 minutes

There is lots of geothermal activity at Geysir

The water in this lake was so clear that I fell into it by accident!

Pingvellir National Park

Kerid is the crater of an extinct volcano

Hveragerdi has hissing vents and bubbling mud pools dotting the landscape
