Iceland 2009

In August 2009, we met up with our friend Jenni in Reykjavik, Iceland and spent four days touring the country. We did the famous Golden Circle tour which hits a few of Iceland's best attractions, Þingvellir, Geysir, Gullfoss. We also visited a lava tube, a crater, we saw a seal colony on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. We also fit in the Reykjavik half-marathon and a whale watching tour.

    Look, the Attache is running off to see some rocks.  Actually, this was planned stop.  We are at Berserkjahraun which means "Berserkers Lava Field”.  The lava flowed a few thousand years ago and is now covered with thick mosses.  It’s a beautiful area for a walk.  The site also has some cool history.  Two genuine 10th century berserkers cut a path through the lava field but were then betrayed and killed after completing the work.  The path still exists.  Both were buried somewhere in the field, but the actual gravesite we could not find.
