Weather changed constantly through our ten days and one whale watching slot got cancelled entirely due to wind. Guesthouse near Vik also had very thin walls so the kids barely slept that one night. Rest of the trip made up for it with how dramatic the landscapes were daily. Just wish there had been more flexibility built in for weather delays.
Whale watching tour from Akureyri gave our son the best birthday surprise ever. Two humpbacks surfaced right next to the boat while everyone on deck just gasped.
Thingvellir was a geography lesson come alive for our kids.
Black sand beach at Reynisfjara with those basalt columns had our whole family taking a hundred photos each. It genuinely does not look real in person either, even better than the pictures online.
Seljalandsfoss was the moment our daughter called this the best holiday of her life.
Two humpbacks surfaced right beside our boat out of Akureyri on my son's birthday and he just went silent, mouth open. Ten days of scenery and that single moment is the one he'll carry forever.
