 Last morning in Reykjavik. It's 9:30am, the moon is out and there's 9"-12"snow on the ground. We're off to grab one last meal before hitting the airport.

Iceland: Out and About

To give you an idea of how expensive it is to eat (and drink) here, our glacier guide was super excited that it's Mega Vika. When we asked what that was he said Mega Vika is Mega Week at Domino's Pizza. This is a big deal because the pizza is normally $24. This week, it's only $11. As I was checking the weather this morning, I saw the ad and laughed.

We spent our Thanksgiving today exploring town and spelunking in a lava tube cave. Pretty fascinating. Now we're enjoying a beer, awaiting our second attempt to spot the Northern Lights.
