We woke around 7:15 to our alarms ringing. We were disappointed that we had not gotten a middle of the night wake up call, but were glad to have had a good nights rest.
After breakfast we bundled ourselves up and were picked up by our guide/driver Heimir. We had a full day adventure ahead. We were in a Super Jeep and we were going off road to see the stark beauty of the southern part of Iceland. Unfortunately it was rainy and windy again, but we did get to see some amazing things. As we drive our guide told us stories and pointed out different vistas. We were near the Eyjafjallajokull volcano that caused all the travel problems in 2010. We had a great lunch at a restaurant/hotel/camping area in the National Park where we were traveling, Thormark. We did some hiking, once to a crater from after the volcano exploded, and to a cave up on the side of a hill.
We ended our day with dune buggy rides crossing streams and rivers and even having hot chocolate and donuts at a waterfall
Day two – no Northern lights.
