Woke up at 6am. As we wanted to catch Annie’s coaching, we had to continue our Golden Circle Tour early.

First stop: Kerið Volcano Crater.

Kerið is about 3000 years old. Minerals from the soil gives the water a nice blueish color.

Next stop: Þingvellir.

This is the site where the North American and Eurasian Plates meet.

Then we rushed back to Reykjavik for our WOD with Annie.

091512 Outdoor WOD
On a flight of stadium stairs of about 30 steps.

5 rounds of:
5 flights of running up the stairs
3 flights of running up while skipping a step
1 flight of jumps while skipping a step
1 bear crawl up
1 minute rest

Took about 30 minutes.

Had some time to chat with Annie after the WOD. Frederik Aegidius was there too. Didnt know who he was at that time. Whoops!

After the WOD we drove to went to the Blue Lagoon just to take pics.

This place is a tourist trap. Very expensive to go in for a dip. The water is warm and rich in minerals, giving it the baby blue color. It’s said bathing in the Blue Lagoon cures skin diseases.

Headed back to Idglo Guesthouse Reykjavik to check in and returned the car. At night we hung out with Jonny, a fellow backpacker from the UK. Drank wine, listened to live music.

Had Yoghurt on the way back.

Lights out. The next day, we took the almost 4 hour flight back to London.

Iceland. I’ll be back someday 🙂
