Thursday
Our official pre-plan today was to keep Thursday open for any additional places or things we wanted to see. Today Iceland has closed down the roads due to weather and tours are canceled. So luckily we didn't miss out on anything we had wanted to see on our itinerary, but now we have to figure out something to do close by.
First we went to the Saga Museum which was just down the road from our hotel. It was a cute museum that told the history of the establishment of Iceland. It was interesting.
These are some of the houses up the street across from our hotel.
The roads were open to Hafnarfjordur which said it had a "viking village" area. Well, kind of it did. It had the Viking Hotel with a themed restaurant but that didn't open until evening. So we walked the streets for a little before ending up at a restaurant called RIF. We had yummy fish and chips, ravioli, and chicken.
Then we drove back to Iceland to rest a bit before our reservations at Flyover Iceland which is a ride just like Soaring California in Disneyland, excepts it's about Iceland. It was a fun thing to do to fill the time since we couldn't really drive anywhere today. We stopped at the grocery store on the way home to buy some Icelandic candy for people back home.
