The day started off again with rain. The first destination for the day was Gullfoss waterfall. It was rainy and VERY windy when I got there. Next was the geyser area. It was a beautiful area and it was cool to be able to see the geyser go off several times. While I was walking to the top view point I saw an area where the water was boiling like crazy from the ground. It was interesting to see. Then as I was driving I saw a bunch of cars parked in a parking lot (that had no signs indicating what it was) so I stopped the car and went for a walk. It was a beautiful walk that led to very blue waters. Then I continued on and saw really nice waterfalls. It was a random stop with beautiful views. The last destination of the day was a hike in the mountains. At one point I had to cross a river by walking on a log and getting my feet in the water (which was super cold). After the hike I drove all the way back to Reykjavik. It was a very very busy day!
