Stykkishólmur Harbor
The moon over Diamond Beach and our darkest night in Iceland
Jökulsárlón (literally “glacial river lagoon”) at the base of glacier Vatnajökull. Also, we’re cute.
Won’t let the rain keep us from exploring Diamond Beach! It certainly is a gem.
Sunset over Fjallsárlón, a miniature version of the glacier lagoon called Jökulsárlón. Both are situated at the base of glacier Vatnajökull and both are pretty spectacular.
“Chillin” at Diamond Beach across from Jökulsárlón where the icebergs make their way out to the North-Atlantic ocean.

My love on Raudasandur (Red Sand Beach)
This is actually just how ridiculously charming the Icelandic countryside is.
Snæfellsjökull National Park with a cloud/fog covered 700,000-year-old sub-glacial stratovolcano called snaefellsjokull (snow fell glacier) in the background…you’ll just have to trust that it was cool

A fisherman bringing in his daily (solo!) catch in Siglufjördur Harbor with his darling son watching Daddy work.
Siglufjördur
Siglufjördur — hey, it was a $25 bowl of soup. It deserves a photo. Plus, there was free bread and butter! Not pictured, a $12 pint of beer.
