The ironman of travel Yoshimasa Ikeuchi

Tomorrow is east and today is west. 10 days of traveling across the Island. "Confirm the cracks in the earth" at the junction of the Eurasian plate and the North American plate "Iceland" created by submarine volcanoes The history of the earth can be seen everywhere.　

Hot spring "Blue Lagoon" (4000 yen) in the lava ground We, who love hot springs, enjoyed visiting three hot springs.

The temperature is a little low (30 ℃ -39 ℃). The hot springs are dyed blue and full of minerals.

Vatnajokull

The city's popular restaurant, CARUSO, was founded in 1892 and tastes local cuisine. Impressed by the waitress who speaks in Japanese. Shopping at a fun supermarket was a short time, but I experienced life in Iceland.

Mizuho Watanabe, who has lived in Iceland for 10 years.

I was especially indebted to my acquaintance, Icelandair's agent, Mr. Fumi Sakata. Thanks to him, a leisurely and leisurely trip that you can't enjoy on a tour I ran on the glacier with a jeep and stood on the glacier of 1000m and enjoyed the dynamic landscape. The fear of my feet shrinking.

Kotetsu's one word

　I was very impressed with the 360-degree glacier and the first experience of standing on it. I met a cute puffin, soaked in the hot springs of the Blue Lagoon, and felt that the trip with her close friends was as short as three weeks.

The Island made me feel alive. Thank you for many encounters. Lively nightly dinner, the finale of the trip is toasted again with "Martini".

Cat is not listening

A pipe organ concert at a church I met by chance. It echoes inside the church. The moment I listened to the tone, it made me feel refreshed as if my heart was washed.　

Easygoing and gentle Icelander. Summer flowers colorfully color the city. The hot spring mood that you can enjoy every day thanks to the smell of sulfur in the hotel's hot shower.

Like Japan, the country of whaling, the Islanders like whales. I bought whale meat at the supermarket and ate it in a room with a kitchen. "Whale" (1kg 900 yen) Cheap and delicious whales crowded the table twice. I didn't take a picture of the record because it was too fast to eat.

Make your skin smooth with a "mud pack" that has a beauty effect. The effect is perfect, but what is the result? However, long baths are forbidden, and I'm quite tired later. Enjoy a late dinner in the midnight sun and have a banquet every day.

"Mizuho Watanabe," who has an ancestor of Vikings who cannot understand Icelandic at all and speaks the ancient Norse of the North Germanic language. Thanks to her, I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you for the relationship with people.
