A Sunny Day In Reykjavík

Gullfoss waterfall + Geysir

5 Comments

We got home from the summer cabin this afternoon. We didn’t make all the stops on the way home that we’d wanted to as we were tired and Ellie was getting fed up with being in the car. Oh well. We did however stop by Gullfoss (the “golden waterfalls”) and Geysir yesterday. They’re not my favourite places simply because they’re as touristy as places get in this country. Spectacular & well worth visiting, yes, but hidden treasures they are not.

I of course took eleventy bajillion pictures:

  3. It is beautiful – and as the Golden Circle captures all the tourists it leaves all the rest of Iceland for the locals to enjoy in peace!
