Icelandic Adventures

It's no secret that Daughter #2 is the funny one of the family.  T and Pony Boy had been practicing a few phrases for their trip.  KJ said she's just going to walk around saying stuff like this:

In all seriousness, they are having an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime trip!  They left DFW Wednesday, June 13 around 8:30 PM and arrived in Reykjavik mid-morning Thursday, June 14.

Sun Voyager (Steel Boat Sculpture)
 
They've seen incredible landscapes, lots of waterfalls (with names that I am not even going to attempt!) and lots of flaura and fauna!  They event sent us a video of a whale breaching and seals playing on the beach!  Today they finally saw a couple of reindeer!  They snorkeled Silfra the other day and have video on their GoPro.  https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/silfra-fissure-iceland-dive-continents_us_56740903e4b014efe0d50a05

If you zoom in and look very closely, you can see a bunch of penguins perched on the ledge!
