Iceland: Grindavik and the southwest coast (June 19)

Hi everyone! Made it to Iceland and staying at a guesthouse in Gridavik, which is close to the famous Blue Lagoon.  I explored some of the southwest coast yesterday, a beautiful desolate volcanic landscape with huge patches of blooming lupine every so often. Sunset was at midnight last night, so there was a lot of playtime in the evening.  Huge fish and chips for dinner (uh-oh!).

Lupine!
