You guys were right .. the @bluelagoonis is incredible. Took the plunge at sunrise, took a pic, then put our phones away and enjoyed this wonderful place while my husband realised all his fantasies of getting it on with a 1950s synchronised swimmer.

Didn't get to see the Northern Lights but it has been far too much of a whistle stop tour. Loved the people I met, if it's a common theme the dry sense of humours are epic. The food was sublime, all the fish and salads and BREAD (though the liquorice and fish jerky I will pass on next time). Even the water is the most incredible pure tasting I wish I could take it back. Oh, and of course, the landscape that we saw was simply spellbinding. Other worldly. We will be back. .

Waterfalls, geysers, blizzards and amazing food (I can't get enough of the sourdough bread). Today has been utterly amazing. Now we chill for a bit before we try and chase the Northern lights tonight🌌🌌🌌.

I will share when I get home but if you wanna add comments and suggestions ⬇️⬇️⬇️ then now is your time let everyone see!
