Exploration of Reykjavik

Yesterday we explored Reykjavik on foot. It is a smallish city, easy to walk everywhere.


We started by getting to the top of Hallgrimskirkja to admire the view.


After that we walked down to the sea. It was a bit windy and cold there so we walked back up to town where it was nice and sheltered.

It was a nice and sunny day and all the icelanders were out enjoying it. It was also end of terms (skolavslutning) so all the kids were celebrating their last day in school before summer with games and a parade.


By the way, these photos were all taken about 11 o'clock at night when we were on our way back to the hotel from our dinner. Midnight sun is a great thing!
