After a very early start most of us slept en route to a snowy wonderland overlooked by Europe's largest glacier Vatnajokull. We stopped along the way to view frozen waterfalls, glacial out wash plain and stunning glacial tongues. Our destination was the Jokulsarlon iceberg lagoon - the setting for many a Hollywood blockbuster, where we were entertained by a group of grey seals and bright blue icebergs, calving off the the glacier and drifting out to sea. We made a detour to the black volcanic sands of Vik where we dodged huge Atlantic waves and marvelled at the trolls (or sea stacks). After a very competitive Icelandic team quiz, we made a hasty exit thanks to our NDHS lighting expert - Tom Williams who spotted the Northern Lights from the window. A vibrant celestial display topped off an amazing trip.
