exploring, Iceland, lava

We continued our journey up to the dormant volcano and kept seeing more and more interesting sights.

The lava formations were each like a work of art with their own uniqueness.

Lava formations have this weird quality – they are solid but look like they caught a moment of time in which fluid had ruled the area.  You can almost feel the movement of the lava flow.

The flows and cliffs are fun for exploring.  We did plenty of that.

cutouts, Estonia, exploring, gingerbread, Tallinn, walking

Once we arrived at the port of Tallinn, Estonia, we took a walk to our hotel a couple of kilometers away.  We wanted to walk around and familiarize ourselves with the city.  What better way to do that than walking to the hotel.

It was a pleasant walk and we came across some pretty things that we would have never seen had we taken a taxi.

How often do you across something like this:

At any rate, the kids had a blast with the cut out.

We kept going and came across a unique gingerbread display.

Again, we would have never seen these had we taken a taxi.  Exploring like this can be a lot of fun – you never know what you will find.  And that’s a fun way to get kids to go on a walk in a place they have never been before.  It’s a game of “tell me what you see.”

I believe that God, church, and theology are approachable, enjoyable, and relevant for everyone. I write about this a lot because people need to hear it. So many people feel lost, hopeless, alone, and are searching for identity and meaning. I'm an ELCA Pastor (Lutheran) who has a background in politics, business, and the non-profit worlds. I take churchy theological ideas and words and communicate them in everyday language that people can understand, in ways that relate, and show that God, church, and theology matter a great deal. Oh, and it doesn't have to be boring either - mostly because it's the best news ever!
