Hot Springs and Blue Lagoon, snorkling the silfra

Iceland is very well known for its geothermal activity.  On top of the power benefits, the hot springs are delightful.  Enjoying 30-40 degree C water when the air temperature is between -2 and 2 is great.  Getting in is a bit chilly, but once your in your toasty to the core.  Afterwards warm for hours.

 A little chillier, we went snorkling in the Silfra. Where the eurasian and north american tectonic plates meet, and have started to pull apart, the water is crystal clear.  Water was 1-2 degrees, but our dry suits were nice and warm.  And they were filming for Thor 2 while we were there! 

Sorry for all the posts, but Iceland was an amazing trip, everything was so beautiful.  It was like a living postcard everywhere you looked.  This is such a small selection of my favourite photos, I took hundreds and hundreds of photos.  I highly recommend a visit!!!
