Day 13: Borganes to Reykjavik

We drove back the scenic route to Reykjavik.  We could have driven under the tunnel to cross Hvalfjordur, but lots of the blogs and guidebooks suggested that it was worth driving round if time permits.  I was so pleased that we did, we were treated to some stunning views and even a rainbow.

It is amazing how contained Iceland keeps its cities.  This photo was taken 20 minutes away from the centre of Reykjavik.

We managed to get the van back in one piece without having to claim on any insurance.  Our final distance driven was 2255 km.

And don’t we look pleased with ourselves!

We got driven back to the Air BnB and it seems so spacious!  

After baths (yes!) and changing clothes we headed out into Reykjavik for dinner.  It is nice that the city feels familiar to us now.  We popped into one shop to find a cat sleeping under the rail of kids pyjamas.  

One more full day in Reykjavik tomorrow and then it is time to fly home very early on Thursday.
