As we finished our time in Iceland, we made one last trip – to the world famous Blue Lagoon.

This was a last minute decision on our part.  We weren’t sure if we wanted to go.  One argument against going is that it is a tourist trap.  The reality – it is.  One argument for going is that it’s a unique experience.  The reality – it is.  In the end, we were glad we splurged and went.

We left at 7pm from the nearby hotel, took a bus and rode for what felt like an hour, and finally arrived.  We walked up the walkway and we knew we were in for a relaxing experience.

We were surrounded by lava rocks, yet it already felt relaxing.

Then the first sighting of water – before we even got inside.

We were about to get really familiar with this unique water.

Stay tuned…
