Iceland
For the past three days, we've been in Iceland.
When I first came to Iceland, my expectations weren't very high. The landscape was brown and devoid of any plants, and it was freezing cold. When we first arrived, the first thing that hit me was the cold. I immediately rushed to put on a jacket. Later, when we were driving around, Christopher barfed in the car. It was then that I felt that this trip was not going to go well.
However, things turned around. The next day, we went on a tour through Iceland, and we saw many beautiful places. We saw a few waterfalls, and learned a lot about how the tectonic activity created volcanoes and fissures. Today, we saw more waterfalls, a beach with interesting rocks, and a huge glacier. It was a shame that we couldn't go on the glacier, though.
I'm looking forward to exploring Reykjavik tomorrow, and getting a taste of the cities of Iceland instead of the countryside.
