We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day in Reykjavik! Most of us went swimming at a local geothermal pool before lunch. It was refreshing and very nice, except for the 10 steps between the outside door and the pool. Icelanders enjoy swimming, regardless of outdoor temperature and they are fortunate to have so many thermal water options.
We had lunch in downtown Reykjavik, at Reykjavik Street Food, enjoying fish and chips, various soups, and chocolate bars. We went to Perlan after lunch, where we watched the planetarium show, Aurora - Northern Lights, and spent time in the hands on exhibits of Wonders of Iceland, including an ice cave. We were home by 6:15 and put together a “Thanksgiving Dinner” of fruits and vegetables, cheeses, breads, and more. We took turns talking about the things we are grateful for. High on the list... family and friends. We have much to be grateful for!
