Today is all about
rocks. I wish I had paid more attention in my geology elective in university to know more about them. Because I didn't know too much, and I didn't learn a lot about the specific rock formations in Iceland, this is mostly a picture post.
The one thing that struck me about Iceland was not only the number of rocks (my joke is, if you don't like sheep, waterfalls or rocks, don't go to Iceland), but the different rock formations. However it all works, it is really neat to see so many different rock formations in a small area.
Here are some of my favourites:
 |
| Black Beach - clearly beach weather |
 |
| If you look closely you can see the Man - That is how big this was! |
 |
| People often mistake this for a pipe organ, but it is naturally occurring! |
 |
| Puffin Rock - home to thousands of puffins |
We have spent a lot of time on the nature in our trip. As we come close to the end of my adventures, we are going to look at sights in the big city next week!
it's amazing that all things were built by mother nature :o) the man is the small blue one? OMD that's a giant cave....
