A short day today on our way from Akranes to Reykjavik, with a tour around the Golden Circle. We were pretty unimpressed with the Golden Circle – too many tourists and the geothermal areas were tiny compared to Yellowstone. Still a great, short day so we could get to the hotel early and enjoy the spa after a week in the car and on our feet!

My play on words for the day. If you’ve been to Yellowstone then seeing the geysers in Iceland are a non-starter, but it was nice to see the Strokkur geyser do it’s thing.
