Here, the modern world competes with the past. Our comfortable hotel demonstrates another competitor. It's a Danish possession since most tourism comes from Europe. For now, we will be among the few Americans to come calling. Iceland is more developed and has a more mild climate.
Volcanic forces provide awesome scenery and hot springs that make yeararound swimming an option.
Well-educated, Nordic people make this more like a trip to Europe. We are met at Reykjavik this morning. Since our rooms will not be ready yet, we are taken on a tour of the city before going to our hotel. Rest of afternoon is free. After free time this morning, we are taken to the airport for our 2 hour flight to Greenland.
