Among ice giants🥶

Today we had a full schedule, and fitting for summer, it was all about ice.😉🍦

A quick catjump from our accommodation to the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, marveling intensely at the icebergs, and then we hopped on a boat straight into the lagoon, getting really close to the icebergs.🥶

White, blue, and black icebergs drift through the lagoon, truly a bizarre sight.

Among them and sometimes on top, a few sea lions are frolicking.

By the way, this spot has already doubled as a James Bond backdrop.0️⃣0️⃣7️⃣

In the background, the mighty Vatnajökull glacier stands tall.🗻

After the boat ride, we needed to explore it closely.

We had a glacier hike on the agenda, lasting 2.5 hours.

Before that, we traveled with 'Super Jeeps' to the very edge of the glacier.

Then we put on crampons, helmets on, and off we went with our Argentinian guide and only 4 other participants.☺️💪

An impressive experience. The glacier is up to 100m thick. We admired ice caves and ice holes (which are even better in winter).

Great views of the lagoon and occasionally some underground murmuring.

Quickly devoured a lamb burger🐑🍔, then we headed to Diamond Beach.

There, the sea washes glacier remnants onto the black sandy beach. Diamonds, indeed.

After 7 hours of 8° and constant drizzle, we quickly changed at our accommodation and headed to 'Horn Brewery' for dinner and ☝️ beer tasting.🍺

Everything was delicious😋, prices will not be commented on🤐

Stay tuned!
