I was thinking the days must've been short, and sounds like you made the most of your time there. Nothing on your "local food" plate looks familiar!Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853360875281742784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538078584522361015.post-14449355618793551932014-02-10T13:56:40.041-07:002014-02-10T13:56:40.041-07:00Taylor, is is quite barren there for sure.

This is much like Colorado above 12,000 ft. Timberline. There are some trees in lower areas with plenty of water, but much of the vegetation in Iceland is a variety of mosses and some shrubs.

I enjoyed reading your blog and viewing the pics from this amazing trip. I am sure if I visit Iceland one day I will not be eating the local fare....<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17144371392423024802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538078584522361015.post-34185305544774990842014-02-10T08:19:16.616-07:002014-02-10T08:19:16.616-07:00Thanks for the writeup!

It was very relaxing after stressful travel.<br /><br />One thing I noticed about the very little I saw of Iceland was how incredibly barren it seemed. I saw maybe one patch of trees the whole drive. It looked like a volcanic wasteland. It was beautiful but just so sparse.<br /><br />Glad you got to go! Trips like that are so difficult to fit everything in, especially with the time change (feeling tired) and the lack of sunlight.Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18033697035510878402noreply@blogger.com
