Foss Foss, baby.

This is such a beautiful country. I'm a bit biased - I like huge open spaces with not much in them and vast tracts of lava don't bother me. And this relatively small country contains some really vast expanses.

Seljalandfoss, the water fall you can walk behind. 


Just like that. 


Svartifoss, the black waterfall 


And then there's Gullfoss, the grand daddy of the waterfalls. 

Not all the water goes down. While the 'Grand Geyser' only erupts occasionally now, it's little cousin Strokkur puts on a show every 5 minutes or so:
