Iceland
What a great way to end your Iceland trip by doing the key tourist attractions. You've really been fortunate to see so much of this beautiful country. Thank you for sharing your Scandinavian journey. It looks like you've had an amazing time, but after 5 and half weeks, it is now time to rest and come home lol

Thanks Alan. It really was quite an incredible trip, and I learned that you don't always have to go to the other side of the world to have such a time. I was indeed ready to come home by this time. Thanks so much for reading, following along and commenting Alan, I really appreciate all your comments and encouragement 😊 I look forward to reading about your further travels too.

Iceland in Iceland
This is funny! but were the items still budgeted? as you mention in your blogs how expensive Iceland (the country) is.

Iceland in Iceland
Indeed, it was so cool, and I'm sure I'm not the only English person to get all giddy in there. Ah, no - I learned in Iceland that Iceland is one of their pricier supermarkets, lol! They had lots of frozen goods with "£1" marks on them, but going for about four times the price! I imagine there must be transportation costs involved. Definitely not a budget supermarket in Iceland, lol!

Centre of the Earth
Congrats to making it to the centre of the Earth. You really have explored the best of Iceland and your photos are absolutely stunning. I am almost caught up with your summer exploration :)

Yay! Thanks for following along with me on my summer travels Alan. Iceland was really special, and such amazing photographic opportunities there I think. I was so happy to be following in the footsteps of Jules Verne there, or rather Otto and Axel 😊

Thanks Alan. I really liked this lake, and the serious stillness of the water.

Artic Fox
Sorry you didn't get to see the beautiful Artic Fox. Thanks for sharing this part of the world that isn't well-known to tourists.

Thanks buddy 😊 I was a bit disappointed not to see them, but felt happy for them that they would have been warm and cosy on a rough day like that.

Hi Alex, what an amazing blog to read and so many beautiful. You managed to capture so many great shots I had to rate them :) I never knew about Grimsey's existence. I am making notes of all these places you visited so perhaps one day I can see them for myself in-person.

Thanks Alan, and your encouragement with my photos means a lot from an experienced photographer as yourself. I do hope you get to travel internationally again at some point soon, I imagine you must miss it.

Leifur Eiriksson Statue and Hallgrímskirkja Church

An obvious stop for us if we go to Iceland
Hopefully we will find time to go to Iceland this year. If we do Leifur Eiriksson Statue is an obvious stop for us. So is Blue Lagoon. If the volcano is still erupting we might go there. Good that you mentioned the long hike to get there. We have to take that into account before heading off there. /Ake

Great, I do hope you get to find the time to go to this amazing country, it really is something else. I like the Viking connection to North America with Leifur Eriksson, and I think the Blue Lagoon is a real must. I'm sure the erupting volcano will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for you if you're able to make it there - the people I spoke with said it was certainly this for them, but it would be wise indeed to know the route you'd hike to get there and back.

Alex, have you come into some gold? I sense the Viking gods are with you on this adventure; I mean it sounds like you were incredibly lucky to see the Blue Whale and I also want to point out you saw a rainbow with a start and end. I've been dreaming about going to Iceland for a while and reading this blog makes me more hungry for Iceland, what a beautiful part of the world.

Ah, perhaps indeed the Divine was with me on this journey! The Blue Whale was an amazing sighting indeed, and I didn't realise I'd seen the start and end of that rainbow - good point, I can see it now! It was a very special trip for sure. I do recommend a trip to this amazing country, and it really is not far away from the UK at all. Thanks for reading and commenting Alan :)

That looks surreal
Hopefully we will be able to visit Iceland next year. I have added Snæfellsjökull to the list of places I hope to visit then. But the chance to see the sight you captured in this picture I guess is quite slim. Dude, that looks surreal. /Ake

Hey, thanks dude! If you drive around the Snæfellsjökull volcano, you can see this body of water near the village of Hellissandur I believe. I hope you get to visit Iceland, it really is an awesome and magical place. I'm glad you've added Snæfellsjökull to your list of places to visit, I think it was my favourite place in the country.

Hallgrimskirkja...
Yes, I didn't go into the church in 1977, so just saw the front.
