Blue Lagoon. Great Restaurants??? Things have changed since I lived there for three years 72-75. It is a beautiful and very different country. Will have to go back for a return visit one of these days. Have they changed the drinking/driving laws? Surprised nobody mentioned the fact that if you have car keys in hand and walk toward your car you can be arrested for drunk driving, given a test ,thir choice not yours,and if guilty face severe penalties.

The Black Castles at Lake Myvatin.<BR>Seeing President Vigdis Finnbogadottir walking about talking to people perfectly naturally and with no armed gorillas protecting her. Seeing icebergs for the first time, I hadn't realised that they were so beautiful or that they were blue.

It was a very dangerous thing for the pilot to do and he had to make an emergency landing in Glasgow. It was an unforgettable sight though!

Victoria, hope this isn't too late--<BR>If you only have one day, um... run away from your cruise ship and don't come back for a week? <BR>Seriously, though, it would depend, obviously, on your own interests, but I'd suggest a horseback ride/Blue Lagoon combination followed by a Viking dinner with singing. But if you just stay within Reykjavik, be sure to go to the top of the church tower and through the park that is by the city hall and to the shops that sell lovely woolies and the hot dog stand by the harbor!<BR>Have a wonderful trip.
