Lincoln had to go to Iceland for a meeting with a client. Since work was paying for his flight and hotel, we decided that Eva and I should tag along. I had no idea what to expect in Iceland, but I fell in love with the country while we were there. It was so beautiful. It was like a European Yellowstone. (The water even smelled like Sulfer... just like in Yellowstone)
I loved Reykjavik. Such a cute and hip little town.
The first night, we went to the Blue Lagoon. It was way better than Idaho's Lava Hot Springs...
Eva was such a great sport.
The next day we toured the Golden Circle.
We started with Kerið -- a volcanic crater lake.
Then we saw the world-famous Geysir geothermal area, a geothermal field where hot springs are in abundance, geysers explode and pools of mud bubble.
The magnificent Gullfoss waterfall
They don't call it Iceland for nothing...
Þinghvellir national park, the original site of the oldest existing parliament in the world.
And when Lincoln was working, I toured Reykjavik and really enjoyed myself with baby Eva and another attoney's wife.
Eva was a gem the entire trip and during all the flights. She is such a great baby, and at the perfect age to travel.
We loved Iceland, and highly recommend it for a little getaway!

How fun! Adam served his mission in Iceland and speaks the language. Back in 2007, I surprised him with a trip to the island to visit and see all of his friends from his mission. I fell in love with it too. It is such a beautiful, unique place. Adam loves all things Icelandic and was so jealous when I told him you guys went. We are dying to go back again someday. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
i am so jealous!! i lived in iceland for six months my sophomore year of college. no place compares. i'd sell my soul to live there again.
Ok, hands down, you guys have the coolest adventures. Iceland looks AMAZING! Now I want to go there. I LOVE the pictures.
That is awesome! You guys are so lucky-or should I say BLESSED:) So many fun things you all do! And having a baby doesn't seem to have slowed it down much at all! You guys are such a cute family!

Wow! Eva is quite the little traveler. I'm glad you guys got to tag along.
