Iceland day 2

The second day, we went to this geothermal spa, called Blue Lagoon (named after the 80's movie).  The water is about 100 degrees and is supposed to heal ailments like psoriasis and arthritis.  When we entered, they gave us a little bracelet that we wore all day.  It locked and unlocked our lockers and if we ordered something from the bar that we could swim/walk up to, they just scanned the bracelet. There was also a station where we could get a face mask, and they would scan your bracelet again.   At the end of the day, they scanned the bracelet again and told us what we owed.

When we got back to the hotel, it was pouring rain, so we just had lunch in the hotel and took a nap. After the rain stopped, we went back into town and walked around a bit.  I told myself I wasn't allowed to get another sweater, but then I saw someone wearing a traditional Icelandic sweater and it looked so cute on her, I had to have one.  It's kind of like this one.  

Then we explored the other side of the city.

Here I am with one of my Norwegian sweaters.

I wasn't hungry because I had fish and chips at the hotel and it was super filling.  Kathy was ready for a little something, so she got a "traditional" Scandinavian dinner.

I did have dessert though -- Apple cake with Caramel sauce.  I've now been to four Scandinavian countries, and I have to say, Iceland's food was the worst of all.  But this cake was so good.
