Iceland Day 2: Exploring Reykjavik
Find day one recap here
Even after a pretty much sleepless flight over, landing at 6am, we promised each other that we wouldn't spend our first day sleeping. On the ride to the hotel, I admitted to Ben that his job of waking me up at 10 or even 11am would be very hard.
We were staying at the Center Hotel: Plaza location. Our 45 minute trip from the airport (via Reykjavik Excursions - Flybus) was great - a fancy bus with wifi for the win! When we arrived, extremely sleepy and a day late, Angel, working the front desk, was seriously the nicest guy in the history of hotels front desk employees. He was welcoming and very friendly, it was a great start to our adventure.
And then we spent the next ten minutes figuring out how to turn on the lights in our room. (hint: it had a room key/card slot that would trigger the connection for all the lights, then you could turn on anything, if the room key was in the slot). The bathroom was very tiny, our view was great,the all hot water smelled like rotten eggs, but the rooms were warm and otherwise great!
We woke up mid morning, and got ready to get lost in the city. We walked all around, maybe about 5 miles total - saw sights, lots of cats, took pictures, had great espresso, and just plain enjoyed being tourists!
Highlights:
Espresso at Fish & More
Leif Eriksson at Hallgrímskirkja
bread bowl soup at svarta kaffi
walked the shopping area and had amazing desserts on Laugavegur
