Today’s Escape with Scandinavia – a way to go – is from Reynisfjara in southern Iceland.
Enjoy the stunning and diverse landscapes of south Iceland, including Þingvellir National Park, the great Geysir area, Reynisfjara area, Skaftafell National Park, Seljalandsfoss waterfall, Jökulsárlón Glacial Lagoon and much more. http://bit.ly/1gR7lau
Reynisfjara is a wonderful and surreal black beach of shiny wet volcanic stones with spectacular sea cave Hálsanefshellir, which lies at the southwestern side of Reynisfjall, with so many interasting shapes, an amazing cliff of regular basalt columns pillars, which resembling a ‘rocky step pyramid’.
Out in the sea are the spectaculary shaped basalt sea stacks, named Reynisdrangar situated near the village Vík.
Legend says that the stacks originated when two trolls dragged a three-masted ship to land unsuccessfully and when daylight broke, they became needles of rock. The stacks are 66 meters (216 ft) above sea level at their highest. The area is known for rich birdlife, including puffins, fulmars and guillemots.
This tour is suitable and recommended for families with children. You have the option of staying in cottages, driving distances per day are moderate and child-friendly activities can be found all along the way.
The ‘land of fire and ice’ is an amazing experience in all seasons. Get up close to unique natural phenomena and local culture with our wide range of Iceland tours at: http://bit.ly/1jK62xm

They’ve only got the first 35 chapters of Egil’s Saga up right now, but I really like the way the narrator reads, and it means I can listen to a saga on the bus. I’m really looking forward to more.
