After a red eye flight from Montreal, we landed in Reykjavik and hit the ground running with Odyssey Tours. We met our fellow passengers and tour guide, Oli, at Cafe Loki for a breakfast spread. Fish, cheeses, meats, and really yummy bread. Initial introductions and then GO!
Statue of Leif Erikson
Halleskirche - a very cool looking concrete church
Massive organ
Then a bus ride heading southeast east to Selfoss. Along the way we toured a Geo Thermal plant. It's quite interesting to see steam just rising from the land. Iceland has worked to harness the power. They are very eco conscious and advanced on the technology.
It was a great start to our tour, but man, we were tired when we got to our first hotel. Forced ourselves to stay awake. I made it to 9 pm.
This was only the beginning of a unique adventure.
