Huskies and the Golden Circle!

Today was our last day in Iceland so we have to go out with a bang! It was anther early start, but at least te breakfast room was less crowded. We waited for quite a

While outside for the shuttle to come and pick us up and when it arrived we found out that it was going to be just us today! So we drove off to the kennels to meet he huskies! They were already suited up by the time we got there avs they were super cute!! We hopped in the cart and off we went! We ride around by the kennel and around some fields surrounding the start and it was so fun! Those dogs are amazing, they make it look easy. While we were riding the musher was telling us about the dogs and their names and some information about them. They were super cute and there were Greenland huskies, a few siberians and a cross husky with a hunting dog just bred to run. It was really interesting and we met a dog that had been in Walter Mitty! So a real celebrity! Then we got to hang out with the dogs and meet the other ones in the kennel that hadn't been out with us and then got back into the van and headed off to the next place.

First we went to a mini waterfall that was just a quick stop before heading to Gullfoss which is a huge waterfall and so pretty! At the waterfall we ate at the cafe there and, on the request of our guide, I had a traditional lamb stew thing. It was alright, but certainly warmed me up! Then we hiked around the fall and then met the driver and left again. We then went to the hot springs and saw the geyser, called gyser. It went of about every 5-10 min so pretty regularly and we got to home around there as well. Then we went on to a national park where we hiked around. It was really interesting because in this park you can see the North American tectonic plate, so it was really cool to see that! So we crossed from euro-Asian plate to the North American plate which was neat! It was a really fun day and we did a ton!Best day in Iceland by far! I'm already planning my next trip!
