Visualizing works!
Now landing in Iceland. 
It’s like landing on the moon.
Whisked away in our ride…
Shots from inside the vehicle, behind the window…
Moss-grown lava fields…
And the Blue Lagoon beckons…

Home of the world’s best Coke, we kid you not! The local Coca-Cola is made from Icelandic glacial water and no corn syrup! No wonder “Icelanders drink more Coca Cola per capita than any other nation“. Other extremely interesting Icelandic facts you never knew here.
Our destination in Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital and home to roughly around 120,000 people.

You’ll notice their love for corrugated iron and steel, the perfect building material for harsh weather with minimal care.
The House of Parliament…
Approaching the old harbor area…

Meanwhile, waiting for us back at our hotel…
Iceland is all about adventure! Stay tuned for more…
