Iceland Tales: Part 1
Tent city! When you spend two weeks traveling in a single country, you tend to have some fun stories to share. Iceland was everything I imagined it to be and so much more. From the generosity of the people who live there, to the breathtaking scenery that greeted us at every turn. This is the first in a series of stories from my journey, at least until I have some more fun travels to talk about. The first night we arrived in Iceland, we stayed within the Reykjavík city limits at the Reykjavík Campground. This was an awesome place to stay, truly a hub for travelers from all around the world. It had room for 200 plus tents, cooking, dishwashing, and shower facilities (a rare commodity for how we chose to travel), and community gathering spaces. Thanks to our jetlag we tried to experience some of the night life the city had to offer, but ended up just grabbing a beer at a pub and going to bed around 11 pm, when it was still very light out.
