... so far. Maybe it's the kid in me, but I don't think there's anything as magical as walking behind a waterfall. The ice-cold water thundering from overhead and splashing almost delicately into the black pools below are exhilarating and calming at the same time.<br><br>From there it was an adventure navigating our rental Hyundai through boulders and icy streams toward Þórsmörk National Park. Ubiquitous as waterfalls are in Iceland, every ...

... campsite of Portsork where we took a short stroll up the hill to a scenic point which provided us with a good view point of the valley bellow and was pretty nice, after lunch I managed to take a stroll around and get some great views of the rock terrain with the green moutains in the distance with the snow capped mountans behind them it really was quite specatcular. Our 3rd stop on the trip was when we walked to a waterfall through a gourge where we had to ...

... the car for damages. Luckily, other than missing the right front part of the bumper, the car seemed driveable. Then, we looked up and saw that we were right in front of one of the sights we'd planned to see--Seljalandsfoss! Seljalandsfoss is a very tall and narrow waterfall with natural caves surrounding it. The mountain from which Seljalandfoss decends actually has a bunch of streams of water falling from it. The river we had just driven over was the runoff ...

... to have a geology professor in our group, and his descriptions of the activity taking place heighten our appreciation of everything we see. We commence our counter-clockwise circuit of the Island, stopping at a dramatic waterfall for a drenching hike behind the thundering drop. Lunch is a grab and go affair, which is perfect for long bus transfer days, and our next stop is a famous Folk Museum at Skogar, which has been the ...

... blue. Reiki even held each of us as we leaned over a 200m deep moulan, that went from white to blue and then darkened to black nothingness. Heading back down was definitely more difficult. It's just not a glacier hike til somone falls over, and yep, that someone was me. Hot (or cold?) tip, don't put out your fluffy gloved hands to stop yourself from falling on slippery ice. Doesn't exactly help. At least my ice axe didn't hit anyone as it sprung from my grip. I ...

... white specks all over the mountains and valleys....actually they look to me a little maggot-like as their size is dwarfed by the immensity of this huge landscape...they're quite frisky creatures too, running all over the place...especially when you honk your horn to get them off the road... Saturday morning is a shift from sunny and beautiful...wake up to blowing sleet...whipping into this sturdy old stone house that is the B and B we stayed in ...

... Seljalandfoss. The sun came out, we shed our coats and set off to walk around the waterfall. A path nestled into the wall, ran behind the waterfall...we walked behind it--taking loads of pictures and enjoying the exhilarating thrill of nature. Small yellow flowers bloomed in the short green grass. We also stopped for pictures of sheep standing on a barn roof, mountain rocks encroaching on the buildings beneath them, black sand beaches, signs that ...
