So I saw all of these mediocre pictures of that volcano in Iceland nobody can pronounce the name of, so I figured I should go and do better.
But the flights to get over took forever as expected (somewhat).
4 days after leaving I finally made it, but the weather was terrible for another 4.
Just before leaving it got pretty good for about a day and a half and this is what I managed to get.

Wish I had more time. I missed all the cool Lightning and the Lava of the first eruption.
But I figure this will just be a trial run for another day.

I am of course accepting sponsors to send me back there for more please...!! haha
