Our first excursion was to Thingvellir. Thingvellir is where two tectonic plates are slowly moving apart to form a canyon, it was the site of Iceland's first congress more than a thousand years ago.
Next we went to Geysir. Geysir is a Geyser that is surrounded by thousands of other Geysers and vents for steam exiting the earth's crust.
Gullfoss, the next stop on our journey. Gullfoss is one of the biggest waterfalls in Iceland, and really a breath taking sight.
The next may in fact be my favorite of all. Kerid is an old inactive volcanic crater that has been filled with a blue water lake. This crater has a small trail across its rim, They skipped having a railing for huge chunks of the trail, leaving you in what felt like pure nature. Although dangerous, this is still one of the things I will remember for the rest of my life.
Finally we went to Seljalandsfoss. This waterfall was very small compared to what we saw earlier, but the one factor that made it so unique was the trail that went behind the waterfall. This is a picture taken behind the waterfall.
Now sitting in our beautiful camp site, I am so happy that we chose to go here, and can't wait to explore more tomorrow.
