Arrived at the airport in Keflavik, Iceland.

After a tired struggle to get the rental car secured, we made our way in to Reykjavik to explore a little.

We went to a strange flea market where I saw this indescribable painting. Tempting, but we passed it up.

We then drove down to where we were staying in Grindavik (about 40 min away), on the South Coast. We marveled at the scenery just on this short drive, passing by Kleifarvatn.

As well as the geothermal area at Seltun.

We checked in to the Harbour View Cottages and rested a bit,

before setting out to relax and celebrate Lindsay's 45th birthday at the Blue Lagoon. 

As the sun went down we stopped at Brimketill, a large natural pool carved out of the lava rock by the pounding of waves.
