rainy iceland
So I head home tomorrow afternoon. It feels like I just left and it feels like I've been gone forever.
I have however had a great time in Iceland. I am glad that I booked things to do because all I really want to do is nap. The time change is 3 hours behind Helsinki so that is throwing me off too.
My hotel is a bit further than I realized. But they do offer free bus tickets. Or you can walk and it's only about half an hour to the harbour. I walked so I could wake up a bit before dinner.
Yesterday I wandered around reykjavik for a bit. Everything was closed but it's a charming little town. Had some great fish and chips.
Today I did a city tour that included quite a bit of stuff not in the beaten trail so it saves me some time having to walk and find all these places. And this afternoon I did the golden circle tour. It includes a waterfall, a geyser and a lookout into the valley.
Tomorrow I have a boat ride planned. Here's hoping I see some puffins this time! Other tours guarantee them, that feels like a bold sort of statement to me.
The country has a nice desolate sort of beauty. It doesn't look so great from the air but being on the ground gives you an a precision for it.
I'm hoping to start actually blogging on Thursday. As long as the jet lag doesn't kill me!
