A Refreshing Start to our Icelandic Adventure: Blue Lagoon and Reykjavik

A Refreshing Start to our Icelandic Adventure: Blue Lagoon and Reykjavik

Introduction: We made it to Iceland! After enduring a 24-hour journey, the excitement of exploring this enchanting country fueled our spirits. Our first destination was the world-renowned Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa nestled in the mesmerizing lava fields of southwestern Iceland. With its milky blue waters brimming with natural minerals, we knew we were in for a rejuvenating experience.

Relaxation amidst Nature's Marvels: After enduring the long hours of travel, our visit to the Blue Lagoon was a much-needed respite. Despite the rainy weather and chilly 44-degree temperatures outside, we immersed ourselves in the warm, inviting waters. It was a delightful experience, spending ample time luxuriating in the tranquil ambience of the spa. The gentle rainfall added to the soothing atmosphere, creating an oasis of calm in the midst of nature's beauty.

Indulging in Silica Masks and Surrendering to Serenity: Within the Blue Lagoon's tranquil embrace, we took the opportunity to pamper ourselves with a rejuvenating silica mask. The therapeutic properties of the mineral-rich waters worked wonders on our skin, leaving us feeling refreshed and invigorated. With no rush or hurry, we relished the serenity and downtime, allowing ourselves to fully unwind and escape the stresses of everyday life.

The Aroma of Nature: As we reveled in the pleasures of the Blue Lagoon, we couldn't ignore the distinct scent of sulfur that lingered in the air. The volcanic origins of the surrounding lava fields meant that relaxation came with a uniquely natural aroma. While some might find it unusual, we embraced this olfactory reminder of the lagoon's geothermal wonders, a reminder of the extraordinary forces at play beneath the Earth's surface.

Exploring Reykjavik's Culinary Delights: Following our blissful time at the Blue Lagoon, we made our way to the vibrant city of Reykjavik. With rumbling stomachs, we eagerly sought out a place to satisfy our hunger before checking into our hotel. The city did not disappoint, offering a wealth of culinary options that catered to every palate. From traditional Icelandic delicacies to international flavors, we relished the opportunity to indulge in the diverse and delicious cuisine that Reykjavik had to offer.

Grand Hotel Reykjavik: A Haven of Tranquility: Our accommodation for the next few nights was the Grand Hotel Reykjavik, nestled in a peaceful area near the city's captivating attractions. The hotel's serene ambiance provided the perfect retreat after a day of exploration, ensuring a restful night's sleep before embarking on our upcoming road trip across the island. With its convenient location and tranquil surroundings, the Grand Hotel Reykjavik became our home away from home during our Icelandic adventure.

Conclusion: Our journey in Iceland had begun in the most blissful manner. The Blue Lagoon's geothermal spa and its ethereal waters had offered us much-needed relaxation, while Reykjavik's culinary scene had awakened our taste buds. With the Grand Hotel Reykjavik as our sanctuary, we eagerly awaited the adventures that lay ahead as we prepared to embark on a road trip across Iceland, eager to explore the breathtaking landscapes and natural wonders of this extraordinary country.

Ireland-Bucket List Trip ✔️
Ireland-Bucket List Trip ✔️

This was my first trip abroad while traveling without any family. I was nervous and unsure of what to do. Thankfully, Johnnie Herring turned my questions into a dream vacation that spanned twelve days of unforgettable memories. Once I arrived in Dublin, I traveled around Ireland by railway. My itinerary included step by step instructions, vouchers for trains, hotels, and tours, directions, and phone numbers of local transportation resources. My hotel accommodations met or exceeded my expectations. Ireland is a beautiful country and well worth a visit...or two. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Johnnie stayed in touch throughout my stay and made updates to my itinerary when a gate change for my flight home changed. I cannot express the level of comfort I felt knowing Johnnie was actively monitoring my vacation and was there if I needed her. ❤️ I highly recommend Johnnie for your vacationing needs. While she's very professional, it is her friendliness, thoroughness, attentiveness, and genuine concern for her client's needs that stand out the most.

Mediterranean Holiday

Johnnie is the best travel agent I have ever worked with. She is very helpful and willing to address any questions or concerns. She is always a pleasure to work with. She helped us plan a Mediterranean cruise and added time afterwards in Athens and Rome. I highly recommend her and the agency.
-Jana Osborn

Greece Cruise Holiday

Johnnie is amazing to work with. We booked a trip to Athens with a cruise to the Greek Islands. I’d never been to Europe before and Johnnie was exceptional at making my first European adventure an easy one. She answered every question that popped up with experience that was reassuring and accurate. My flights were well timed, transfers from place to place handled in the most efficient way, and my hotel experience was a good one thank to Johnnie!
