... you will love it! It is so beautiful with the grey water! " and I the thought penetrated my thick skull that some people actually like grey...can't really understand it myself but I have to say the Iceland, with it's many grey features, is a beautiful and amazingly powerful place. <br>

... so all their waste/urea sort of floats around in their system, making it poisonous to eat. So the Icelandic solution? Bury the shark for a few months and let it rot. Yep. Apparently something happens in the rotting process that removes the toxins from the meat and also cures it. Who knew? So anyway, you are left with rotten, cured shark meat...sounds delicious, no? We both felt we just couldn't leave Iceland without trying what sounded like the ...

... is a thermal spa outdoors adjacent to a geothermal power plant in the middle of nowhere. The water is blue and is one third fresh water and two thirds saltwater. The bottom was a fine black pumice like sand that you could not see unless you brought it to the surface. The pools were huge, 200-300 yards across, with waterfalls, and little canals throughout the complex. I hung out in the water for about an hour and then caught the bus to the ...

... at "Thingvellir National Park, Iceland's only UNESCO World Heritage Site. Starting in 930 AD the Vikings held their outdoor parliament, the Althing, here. But it is more than a culturally significant site, it is a unique opportunity to witness the geological forces of plate tectonics, which separate about 2.5 cm or 1 inch per year. Over the eons, a rift valley formed where the Alþing gathered. Lake ...

... The downtown area was filled with cute shops and cobblestone streets. And tons of statues! We couldn't read the plaques on the statues, but still, there were statues everywhere! It was also very windy, so I bought a hat to keep my hair out of my face. Our biggest mistake in Reykjavik was not taking a map. The plan had been just to explore the city and for some reason we never grabbed a map to ...

... were trying to get me to share a hotel room with them and got a little pushy about it. Luckily I was able to use my evasion skills to lose them when we got to the bus station. I got to the campsite at the hostel and set up my tent, and that&#347; pretty much it...not a very exciting day :)

... had no barriers and there were some hot pools that were at 100 degrees with no signs to tell you not to touch! And it turns out the whole lot of them are on private land and he just lets people visit them for nothing, and it is a major tourist spot, seems a bit weird! I would charge! This was good as their were cafes at the tourist spots that we could get hot chocolates for! Finally something open! As town was still closed until the next day. Thursday - we put ...

... geothermic power plant and looked at Skaholt, a remote church popular for gigs apparently. Top places though were, Geysir and Gulfoss. Geysir is the name of a hot water spring that at one time spurted high into the air and which gave it's name to all geysers (and not just in English). Geysir itself is sadly past it's prime and hasn't gone off for years. Luckily, a mere matter of meters away is a cheeky young upstart called Strokkur, which was shooting off every ...
