Iceland

I'm in Keflavik. it's cold. I landed around 7 in the pitch black. it's 10:23 now and finally things are a little grey out there. with what looks like a potential sunrise on one horizon. Something glitched online, I need to sort out my blue lagooning now. I don't want to miss the geothermal spas. if I do, I shouldn't have stopped here.

Well, now Iceland sucks a little. there's no record of my reservation to go to the Blue Lagoon. Also, when I was talking with the Iceland Air person in Reykjavik, she said I could get a shuttle from the hotel desk....the receptionist now thinks I'm an idiot because there is no such shuttle. BOOOOO! rent a car for an afternoon? taxi? hike? hmmm.....

Its probably late, but depending on how cold, how much shit you have to carry, I'd hike, otherwise, just taxi it up.

Took a look at my options...the taxi from about 4k away was nearly $25, renting a car was $70...blue lagoon? 16k away. 10 mile hike wasn't quite what I had in mind (though there is a trail!).
