Iceland is mother natures theatre with magical colorful curtains and spectacular waterfalls in the backdrop. The thrilling performance by sprouting springs and breaching whales delivers a play of a lifetime. In Icelandic one can witness four seasons within a few hours of the day. This nature's wonderland has inspired travelers and explorers from the Viking age to the present day. In Autumn of 2017, we drove the ring road to loop Iceland in seven days. Driving Iceland’s ring road was an incredible experience. Each day we drove past many majestic waterfalls, geothermal springs, rainbows, beautiful horses, countless sheep and rugged mountains. The incredible landscapes and otherworldly sights made me fall in love with Iceland. Through this memoir, I share my tale of well spent one week in Iceland.
