Farwell Iceland

The last few days in Iceland were spectacular like the rest of the trip. Who doesn't love glacier walks, ice climbing, and of course the magestic Icelandic  waterfalls.

The travel group was great as well. It's strange to think I got to spend six  days of my life with them before goodbyes are in order and everyone goes back to their daily routine.

Iceland was everything I could have hoped for and more. The 6 day trek pushed me out of my comfort zone and took me further into icelands iconic wilderness. I am proud of myself for pushing myself out of my comfort zone and would not hesitate to travel alone again.

Today I sadly said farewell to Iceland but hello to London. Oh what a change!

Plus, guess who I found at the airport. See if you can spot waldo in the photos below.

I was sure happy to see my dad and with our arms filled with luggage we braved the tube to get to our hotel.  Boy was it busy with people moving in every direction. We must have looked like old pro's, since a mere two hours after dropping our bags and starting to explore the city, we were being asked for directions. Initially dad would respond with we have no idea we are tourists. But after the second and third time we were able to point people in the right direction.... we think. I hope they found the Victoria tube station at least.

London is so rich with history our meanderings left us skimming the surface and a strong desire to return. I think dad may have caught the travel bug? We shall see! But, London we will be back you have impressed us for sure.

Tomorrow we head to Whitley bay up in northern England where we will begin our journey.

Can you find waldo ?
