The Blue Lagoon

Hello everyone. Today we've been to the blue lagoon, a pool of chemically contaminated water from the geothermal powerstation. It's supposedly got healing powers and makes you look younger. It just made us feel slimey and dry! It was very hot and we got to put this white clay stuff on our faces to rejuvenate us.
Iceland has been fantastic and I'd recommend it to anyone. Its very like New Zealand but only a couple of hours flight from the UK. You've got the dramatic scenary, the geothermal activity, the people are very friendly and all speak English.
Tonight we set sail for Greenland and we're hoping its not as rocky a journey as last night - the boat really did move about quite a bit with the drawers in the room flinging open and shut all night.
Thanks for all of the comments - keep them up! I'll try and get some more photos posted but it very much depends on the boats satellite link.
