Thingvellir & Reykjanes
Reykjavik | Snæfellsjökull National Park | Snæfellsnes | Thingvellir & Reykjanes
Thingvellir
We didn’t have time to do the whole Golden Circle this time, but did visit Thingvellir National Park again.  
- Öxarárfoss
This is a beautiful waterfall that’s slightly bluish in color, like the blue lagoon.

- Continental Divide

Reykjanes Peninsula
On our way to the Keflavik Airport, we stopped by a few sites on Reykjanes Peninsula:
- Gígvatnsvatn (Green Lake)
Tumblr media
- Krísuvíkurberg Cliffs - the drive is a bit long on dirt road, about half hour round trip.  Not sure if so worth it.
Tumblr media
- Gunnuhver Hot Spring - quite a strong hot springs.. we could barely see the person in front of us while walking from the Parking Lot.  And a very strong sulfur smell that kids loudly protested. :)

Travel tips
We had a great time in Iceland.  Some parting thoughts: June/summer time is a great time to visit Iceland. It never got truly dark despite “nighttime” from 12:30-3:30am. This means long day and lots of time to get out and enjoy. Just be sure to bring eyeshades so you can sleep.  Last time we went during end of August and it got dark just like in America.  
Food is expensive, with burgers going for $30.  We stayed at vacation rentals so we can cook ourselves. Things to note, the most expensive item is often not the best item on the menu.  So be sure to read Google Maps reviews on what to order.
We drove a rental Tesla, not much than regular cars.  The car we got had basic self driving, making it easy to drive long distance.  Apparently the Model Y is the most popular car here, and u can find chargers in hotels or parking lots all over.  We even got 300 miles of free charging.

Der Goldene Kreis auf Island
Der Goldene Kreis ist fast ein "Muss", wenn man eine Island Rundreise macht. Der Thingvellir Nationalpark, der Gulfoss Wasserfall und die Geysire gehören dazu.
Wir sind nun schon ein paar Tage im Süden Islands unterwegs. Der Goldene Kreis ist ein Muss für einen Island Roadtrip! Wie du sicher schon in meinem letzten Blogbeitrag gelesen hast, sind mein Mann Dirk und ich im Winter auf Island unterwegs. Der Januar war einer der kältesten seit vielen Jahren, mit Unmengen von Schnee. Davon ist nichts mehr zu sehen, da es in den letzten Wochen wiederum…

Национальный парк Тингветлир красивейшее место. Это один из трех первых созданных в Исландии национальных парков и единственный Объект всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО. 🌋 Когда я шла мне все казалось похожим на сцены из Властелина колец, Скайрим, Игры престолов ( как оказалось ее тут снимали Орлиное гнездо и т.д.), никакие фото не передают этого масштаба и красоты. Первопоселенцы в 900х годах решили создать тут место встречи - «поля парламента» – именно так и переводится «Тингвеллир». Он работал веками, исландский альтинг является старейшим представительным парламентом мира, работающим и по сей день. такие пироги 🇮🇸 #iceland #pingvellir #pingvellirnationalpark #icelandtravel #travel #visiticeland #travelphotography #nature #landscapephotography #travelgram #thingvellir #waterfall #icelandnature #landscape #goldencircle #icelandtrip #island #photography #naturephotography #icelandroadtrip #gullfoss #geysir #icelandscape #islandia #icelandphotography #thingvellirnationalpark #silfra #nationalpark #exploreiceland #icelandic (at Þingvellir, Arnessysla, Iceland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck4C01htlGo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Iceland: Along the roads (Golden Circle, part1/2)
Just got into my car and drove along the road. It’s a popular circuit route called the ‘Golden Cirlcle’. I stopped along the way, where the landscape was beautiful, the place had to offer some points of interests or also just for the Iceland horses. At the Kerid crater, a strong, icy wind reminded me on the country i’m in. It kept this way all day. But maybe it was the reason not seeing many…

I finished another page. We went hiking in Thingvellir national park which is the place where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates meet. It's also the place where one of the first parliaments of the world was founded around the year 930. Getting to see this volcanic landscape was amazing and we had really good weather for most of the day. In the afternoon we drove to the waterfall Gulfoss and the Geyser Strokkur but it was so foggy we couldn't see much so we decided to go there again the next day.

The first day of real 'travel' in Iceland was an insanely long one, starting with me picking up the car and travelling out into Thingveller, the site of the althing, the ancient seat of Icelandic government. Now, it's significantly more wilderness-ey. I learned a bit too late that it would probably have been worth it to go diving in some of the clear water. For next time!
