This was without a doubt the best day of our trip. We went out with Einar and his son from Öræfaferðir / Local Guide Travel Service. They were both amazing, and we would highly recommend their services! Please feel free to check out the link below for more information.
For our third stop, we joined up with Einar's son and another group to head into another ice cave on Vatnajökull Glacier, about 15 minutes away from the first one. This cave had two floors! We had to do a small rappel about 8 feet down to get to the bottom floor.
Pictured here is my lovely wife in a clever nook she found in the cave. She is a nurse, so she thought it looked like an MRI machine and just had to crawl in. This is a wide angle lens so she is only about 2 feet away from the camera here.
Being in these caves was unlike anything we've ever experienced. They were well insulated so it wasn't extremely cold, but the textures and formations were completely otherworldly. The ice will often take on a rich, deep blue color in these caves. However, we were told that because it was a bright and sunny day, that blue became more of the aqua/teal type color you see here.
Interestingly, due to the constant changing of the glaciers and temperature changes, these ice caves are rarely ever around for more than a couple of weeks at a time. You can go back every year and have a completely different experience every time. We were told that the ice caves we enjoyed, for example, were gone within a week of our visit. This cave in particular, had partially collapsed the day before we entered it, so we only got to see about 2/3 of the cave they had intended on showing us.

Ingólfshöfði is a nature reserve that's home to thousands of nesting sea-birds, like puffins and great skuas. This birdwatching tour was taken with the group Local Guide, which hauls people across a massive black sand beach in a hay cart to reach the cliffs where the birds live.

Our second stop was to head into an amazing ice cave adjacent to the Svínafellsjökull Outlet on Vatnajökull Glacier. Being in these caves was unlike anything we've ever experienced. They were well insulated so it wasn't extremely cold, but the textures and formations were completely otherworldly. The ice will often take on a rich, deep blue color in these caves.

Here my wife and I accepted the challenge of holding a steady pose through 5 long exposures on a self-timer.

This shot was from the bottom floor. This particular section was not tall enough to stand in, so it required kneeling and crawling. I liked how the sunlight could be seen peaking through and lighting the rocks and icicles here.

rob and i went to pollos el paisa for dinner one day. we love the food there, really good columbian dishes. he got a grilled pork loin dish, while i got the "cazuela de mariscos" which is mixed seafood in lobster sauce. it came with rice and french fries. when the cauldron pot came out, the sauce was still bubbling from the heat. it was fascinating to look at. the sauce was so creamy and rich, it was great over the rice.

The College Park Aviation Museum is located adjacent to the College Park Airport. The College Park Airport is the world’s oldest continuously operating airport established in 1909 when Wilbur Wright came and trained military officers to fly the government’s first aeroplane. The airport is known as the “Field of Firsts” which includes the first female passenger, first machine gun tested on an airplane, and the first controlled helicopter flight.
