It begins..

Arrived in the evening at Keflavik Airport. Flight took 4 hours from Heathrow, then took the 40 minute bus ride from Keflavik to Reykjavik.

Checked in at Igdlo Guesthouse. Spoke to the owner Fredrick about having some Icelandic food and recommended Cafe Loki about 15 minutes walk from here. He said that Icelandic food sucks but whatever I wanted to try some.


Took a peek at Hallgrímskirkja, the largest Church, and the 6th tallest building in Iceland to Cafe Loki. Here we had a combo platter consisting of fermented shark meat, dried fish, rye bread with butter, and a shot of Brennivíns as starter and a bowl of beef soup for the main dish.

The taste of the fermented shark was really strong and kinda taste like wasabi.

Repacking our bags for our epic hike the next day
