A week in Iceland

I visited Iceland in August for five days at the time of the Reykjavik cultural weekend. Iceland is a fantastic place to visit, with some magnificent sights to see. It must go down as one of the best places I have visited in my travels.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Beautiful landscape, lovely people
Cons:It is a very expensive place to visit and to travel in.

Hi Bernard! Thank you for taking me to Iceland - even if it was only virtually. I was there last year and loved it so much. Happy birthday from Finland!
