A Rainy Night
Rain drops may fall, but the geothermal pools are just as inviting. This evening we explored Grafarvogslaug, a terrific pool with a screaming slide and fun for the full crew.
Sign Number 12
In this case - 12 was the zenith of our hike. We touched the waters of the glacier lagoon and cavorted with the rocks of rainbow hues laid out behind the mass of receding ice. Kudos to you for completing the climb to overlook of tólf.

A Blast at the Perlan
Our littlest one loved the geysir most of all. Up up up! The older boys enjoyed a final show from the comfort of the basement.

Windy Windy Valley
Literally in the middle of nowhere, on a once paved, now unpaved road, we settled down for a sleep in a true valhalla. To protect our tent took some ingenuity as the meager 20 cm stakes were traded out for croquet mallets!
A Mountain Lake at Snæfellsnes
Here we experienced tranquility with the company of swans.
King of the World!

Friday Night Lights
The sun is still up and the main square is just the place to enjoy soft serve cones, brotherly love, and the entertaining antics of the local skateboarders.
Seltjarnarnes
Evening sunsets are slow and melodic between the coasts of this sliver of land jutting out toward the Atlantic. We consider ourselves lucky to live in its shadows.

Run to the Vík
The prospect of a late sunset makes us all run through the hills with thoughts of sun kissed waters on the horizon.
Not Without Conflict
We are here in a historic time. The fact that Iceland has indebted the unborn generations to come has not gone unnoticed.
