Unfortunately, we didn't have much time to spend in the endearing, little city of Reykjavik, Iceland--it is pretty small, but I would have liked to have a couple of full days to explore. Despite our lack of time, we were still able to walk around,...
If there was one area I wish we had time to explore, it would be the south coast of Iceland. With its jaw dropping cliffs, mountains, glaciers, waterfalls and beaches there are ample ways to turn what would be a half day drive into a...
Glacier hiking and ice climbing was by far our favorite activity in Iceland. Don't get me wrong, the other adventures were a blast as well, but there was just something so unique and awe-inspiring about climbing around on the stunning blue ice of a glacial...
