LET THERE BE LIGHT

BE AWED IN ICELAND

Was November 7-13, 2024

heather and hanan had the privilege to lead 16 beautiful souls to explore and retreat in selfoss, iceland. the Icelandic people proudly shared their country with us and entertained us with folklore stories of vikings, trolls and Elves.

we were awed in the land of fire and ice with its northern Lights, Breathtaking mountains, dramatic waterfalls, Glaciers, rolling farms and hills and natural geothermic springs. and we were pleasantly surprised by icelands delicous food consisting of locally grown greenhouse fruits and vegatables, pasture raised meats and hearty breads and soups.

our adventurous group wanted to see it all so we went right from the keflavik Airport to the Reykjanes Lighthouse & beach, stopped to take a wind blown photo in Gunnuhver & straddled the Bridge Between the Continents of north america & euroasia. then we soaked away the jetleg in the healing waters of the blue lagoon and had our first dinner in the selfoss hotel RESTAURANT.

our 1st free day consisted of yoga & public transportation to explore reykjavik, yummy salmon at Tryggvakali restAURANT and a miraculous display of the northern lights

another Full Tour day took us through the Golden Circle, where We saw the kerio volcanic crater, Pingvellir fissure, geysir and gullfoss waterfall. we also got a chance to soak in the Fontana Wellness Spa (some even braved the cold plunge in the lake) and we ate rye bread (cooked underground in the Geothermal Bakery) and fresh trout & soup.

Another free day means more yoga, exploring selfoss, horseback riding, SKYR Museum and of course more mineral spas. we came back together for dinner at the amazing mar restaurant

Tour day in the rain visiting more water at the Seljalandsfoss & Skogafass Waterfalls, Reynisfjara Black Beach and the Solheimajokull Glacier. Then off to the quaint anna hotel for warm nourishment.

Another free day - more yoga, horses and food
