Hi everyone! In last autumn, we have a chance to visit Iceland for 13 days and we want to share story of this trip with you. This is the first Miwayla trip reviews so we will try our best to write this post. :)
After long flight, finally we arrived at Keflavík International Airport. We call rental car company to pick us up. After we signed documents, we started our trip !
We drove to buy some food, go around the city and visit the first night accommodation. Here are a group photo.
That's so cold and cool
Want to follow but no money T^T
I..C..E..L..A..N..D is the land for love.

Hi, you can see our next chapter here

Here we are. The 4th day of the trip (Not even half of the trip ??) Start with this picture..... Wohhh, what is that ?
Just a view along the road. Go go ! And then you will find Svartifoss. This waterfall is so strange but interesting ! It takes a while to go there. You can skip this if you don't have enough time but are you sure ?
After long walk, we got back into the car and drove to next place. This one is Svinafellsjokull. One of the place that we're so impressed ! Where glacier and earth can meet each other.
We walked around there to take some nice pictures and a lupin flower. Can you imagine how beautiful it will be if it is a blossom season. However, we need to say goodbye to lupin and move on.
Not so long, we arrived Jökulsárlón. A large glacier lake, it has a boat tour there. You can see some seals in the lake. We heard and saw an ice cracked with our own eyes !
Let's us end the 1st part of Iceland trip reviews with this group photo. See you in next post ^^
Near the next town Vik, we arrived Reynisdrangar. it likes a big castle build with basalt sea stacks. This beach is extraordinary with black color. Some part are pebbles. A lot of group photos...again.
We are Starf(l)eet.
Along that road, you will see a moss lava field. I can tell exactly location. You can search google map with "Eldhraun" (Fire Lava).
If you look around thoroughly, you may find some berries !
Last place for the day is Fjaðrárgljúfur (Not sure how to pronounce !?) We saw some photographers took pictures here. It's also have a way to walk but quite long. However, we don't think you should miss.
New day has come. Journey continued. We visited one of the most famous place in Iceland. The Seljalandsfoss.
Here is panorama picture.
We departed from there not so long, you will reach another famous waterfall "Skógafoss".
I would name it "The shy waterfall" because she hides in the cliff. You need to walk a little to see her full face. There is a way to walk up above the waterfall if you want to see the source of water :)
Let's take a another CRAZY group picture. We looked for a road with nice view with no car drive around. Here what it looks like..... ?
Not far from there, we arrived Strokkur ; the Mighty Geyser ; It erupts every 6-11 mins. If you are a photographer, we're sure that you will get a lot of nice pictures. This place made us realize how powerful of mother nature is!
Drive a little more, you will face with Gullfoss. This is one of the biggest waterfall that we have ever seen. During day time, you may see a rainbow. Actually, rainbows ! You should see with your own eyes what double rainbows look like. However, double rainbows picture that we took cannot show how big of waterfall is so we selected this one instead.
Along the way to our 2nd accommodation, we needed to pull over because traffic jam. We got out of a car and realized that they let the sheep passed through. This is amazing !
Next day we started the trip with Þingvellir National Park. This is the first time that we have a chance to use Iceland public toilet. It's quite cool that you can use credit card to pay for the fee ! Iceland is cashless society, we almost never use cash at all.
After walked for a while, we continue our journey to Bruarfoss. "Foss" means waterfall in Iceland language. This waterfall is very beautiful with the turquoise color. We just stood there, took a photos and watched it for a few hours.
