AWESOME PICTURES FROM ICELAND





 
This massive glacier is unbelievable, this shot was taken with us on the side of a cliff. There were actually people doing a glacier walk at the time.  (see below)


And here are the people ice climbing on that huge glacier. when you see how small they are in the picture, it gives you some perspective on the size of these frozen behemoths. Huuuugggeee!
Huuuugggeee!!!



At the base of the massive glacier. That's the beauty of Iceland, it's open for you to just walk up and say hello to the glaciers.. All that brown coloured area behind us is all ICE> it looks all dirty but that baby is melting away quickly. Standing on and next to the glacier you here the sound of water trickling and water flowing under, in and through the glacier. It's actually quiet intimidating standing next to it. It makes you feel real small and insignificant... An awesome sight!
I'll tell you what else is awesome, check out the Monkey Magic hair do, I'm sportin....hehehehe




Fun in the sun on Black Beach in Vik. The sand was so black it was mind bending. We're so use to seeing beautiful white sandy beaches, that it took a while for it to register in our heads, that we were on a beach...




Getting to these Atlantic Puffins was a tough slog. We got to the beach looked to our left and saw this massive cliff with people scattered all over it. We were like what the??? We looked at all the wildlife and saw hundreds of little birds. We were like could these be Puffins.... So we hauled ass up the cliff. I asked B not to come up scared she would fall down, but not wanting to miss and opportunity, she hauled ass with me.. Next thing you know where about 40 metres above sea level, sitting on a puffins nest, chillin with Puffins.... It was gold.. The photo is real cool cause the Puffin is in focus and the background is blurred.
If getting up was fun then getting down was even better. Berna not putting any faith in her balancing ability decided to plough her way down on her bum... Her pants, jacket, shoes and fingers all got destroyed with mud... She left a trail of destruction down the mountain side visible from space...hehehehe



Me running on Vik beach, trying some stuff on photo shop.. I still suck at it but working on it.

ICE ICE ICELAND BABBEEE...






          BEFORE 



AFTER

HAVING A OF A TIME HERE IN ICELAND...
Our first day in Iceland and we we're kindly directed by our couch surfing host to a small eatery in the harbour. We saw that they had whale watching tours operating before we entered the eatery and thought, that's awesome... Then we walked in and saw some skewers with what looked to be beef on it ready to be BBQ. Having not eaten anything all day, it looked real good... When we ordered two, the lady behind the counter said, 'you know that this is whale?' and were like okay then....
It tasted nasty, it was real dry and real bloody... it did not taste like chicken at all. I don't think I would eat it again. I really had to force it down my throat. It was an experience What did taste good was the the crab and lobster soup Bernadette ordered. With warm toasty bread the soup tasted great.
