Iceland for Into the Midnight Sun Cruise

Flew to Reykjavik the evening of June 14, 2017 using a stopover on Icelandic Air. Arrived at Keflavik the next morning, rented a car, explored part of Iceland within a couple hours of Keflavik, and then went to our AirBnB in Reykjavik. Spent the rest of that day and the next in Iceland, doing the Golden Circle on the second day. Flew to London on Saturday to board the Viking Star for an "Into the Midnight Sun" cruise in UK and Norway.

Got a little Icelandic money before we left home. Looks like a lot of money but each 1000 krone bill is less than $10.
