Sun, 11 Dec 2011 | By tk_inks | Views [3791] | Comments [4]

Oh what a long day.  I went on the Snaefellnes Peninsula tour with Reykjavik Excursions.  It was a lot of sitting on a bus and frequently getting off to walk around, then getting back on the bus to head to another location.  It was a lot smaller group ... Read more >
