We escaped from “The Mafia” room at Reykjavik Escape in 38m 44s with no clues! 🔓 Our first escape room outside of the US, and the only escape room in Iceland. Room 44!
We had a delightful time last night at the Icelandic Sagas: The Greatest Hits. We learned new things and had many laughs. Plus we got to hang out with the cast afterward for a group photo!

The Langistígur, or The Walk of Death, in Þingvellir National Park.
We happened upon this couple taking wedding pictures at Öxarárfoss in Þingvellir National Park today. Cute couple, amazing scene.
Me at the Lögberg (Law Rock) of the Alþingi in Þingvellir National Park. This is where the Lögsögumaður (Law Speaker) would preside over the assembly. It was amazing to be able to be here.
This is the most extreme vehicle we have seen in Iceland yet! Mazie included for scale. 😲
Gullfoss!
