The Golden Tour


Today we did our tour of the Golden Circle.  We were picked up at the hotel for 8 hours of site seeing.  Our first stop was at a thermal greenhouse where I tried a bowl of fresh tomato soup and Jong was going to have a Caesar but opted for a beer.








We then went to see the Geysir.













Next was a view of the falls.  At the falls it was really windy.  They were to reach 80 km/hour.  
















At the end of this it had started to rain.  Our final site to visit was where the Teutonic plates had separated -  the European plate and the North American plate.  We will have to post these later as the pictures are on John's camera.  We were drenched by the end of this.  

This trip was nice but would have been more enjoyable if it was nice outside.  Rain is forecast until we leave on Monday.
