About 15 minutes away from the airport, you will be able to see the peninsula, light house, and Gunnuhver.  We realized that in Iceland, everyone is very bad at giving directions.  The rental car person told us we could not get lost, well we did. As you head towards Reykjavik for about 10 minutes fromContinue Reading “Iceland: Blue Lagoon & Peninsula”

When I stumbled upon this tour, I had to do it.  It was one of the priciest tours we have ever done, but when in the world do you have a chance to go inside a volcano?  Actually, only in Iceland and only the Thrihnukagigur Volcano. Here is a special on CNN about the reporter’sContinue Reading “Iceland: Inside the Volcano-Thrihnukagigur Volcano”

Iceland. Is. Beautiful. That’s what Lisa said when she posted a collage on Facebook and I completely agree.  That is the best way to describe the country.

This region includes the Westfjords and Snaefellsnes peninsula.  Snaefellsnes is famous for whale watching, seal watching, and an underground cave tour.  It also has extremely beautiful scenery. We did not go to the Westfjords, but we did venture around Snaefellsnes.  Along the way, we made a few other stops as well. Snaefellsnes is about 2.5Continue Reading “Iceland: Snaefellsnes Peninsula and Western Iceland”

I took a quick weekend getaway to Charleston, South Carolina for a weekend as a Southern Belle.  I will fully admit I had preconceived notions of what Charleston would look like, a charming, cute, historic beach town with lots of handsome southern gentlemen, and a more built up city. I may offend Charleston lovers, butContinue Reading “Charleston, South Carolina”

Why Greece?  The simple answer Mama Mia!  Just kidding, we were deciding our next adventure, which was supposed to be Peru, but tickets were SO expensive.  We started scouring for tickets and Greece was extremely cheap during the month we went, probably because it was freezing, but it was worth it.  Plus we have alwaysContinue Reading “Opa!!!

I have never had such an urge to be a tourist in LA, but I was asked to make a schedule for someone who doesn’t know the area. After I made this schedule, I was so jealous I told Lisa I wanted to go. She said the same thing as me that she never hadContinue Reading “3 Days in LA- What to see??!??”
