I’m not going to write a lot about what we did on our second day in Iceland (day 3 of our trip)–the pictures speak for themselves so I mostly just want to share those. It was a lot of driving, but totally worth it. We drove three and a half hours out from our hostel to see J\u00f6kuls\u00e1rl\u00f3n glacier lagoon and Diamond beach. We then spent the rest of the day stopping at the other sites along the way back to the hostel. Here’s the list of stops: Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, Diamond Beach, Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon, Fjadrargljufur Canyon, Reynisfjara black sand beach and basalt columns, Solheimajokull glacier, and Skogafoss. This was the worst weather of our trip but not that bad–a bit colder and misting rain on and off. If you make it to the end of this post–it’s a long way because we packed a lot into the day–I will share one of the coolest things about summer in Iceland! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First stop: J\u00f6kuls\u00e1rl\u00f3n Glacier. I know I say this a lot, but one of my favorites! The pictures don’t capture the amazing colors of the glaciers and the water! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
