The last big thing we did in Iceland was a bus tour of the Golden Circle. This was an eight hour tour of Kerid extinct volcano with a lake inside, a small waterfall that had a salmon ladder, Gullfoss waterfall, the Great Geyser, and a national park where we could see the North American Plate separating from the Eurasian plate.
My favorite part of the Golden Circle tour was the Gullfoss waterfall. This inspired me because it had very rapid waters. There was a lot of spray as the water fell over the cliff and hit the bottom far below.
The geysers were my second favorite thing on the tour. The geysers put on a show for us. They erupt every 15 minutes. The whole area smells like rotten eggs because of the sulphur in the water.
