Today we embarked on the longest and most amazing day trip ever. We traveled the south coast of Iceland from Reykjavik to Jokulsaron Lagoon. The round-trip took about 17 hours with all the amazing stops we made. We hiked to several amazing waterfalls, saw countless sheep, saw miles of lupine, stared in awe at majestic glaciers and a lagoon full of icebergs.
Kelly is the hero of the day- she drove our little Yaris the entire day. None of the rest of us can confidently drive a manual so she did the entire thing. It took many cups of coffee, bags of mystery junk food and some amazing carpool karaoke sessions. It is only day two and I can confidently say we can talk about anything… Seventeen hours in the car will do that for friends. We finally got home at 11 PM and the sun still hasn’t set! Our bodies are so confused…
Here are just a few of the hundreds of pictures we took today. They don’t do it justice, you just have to come to Iceland yourself.
