Iceland (4) Thingvilier National Park

Thinvellir(Pingvellir) National Park is where the Icelandic parliament Alpingi was found in the year 930 AD. Pingvellir is situated on the northern shore of Pingvallavatn, the largest lake of Iceland. It is geologically remarkable and the tectonic plate boundaries create breathtaking senery. To me, it was the imagines from the composition of rocks, green soil, the blooming wildflowers in the valley and near the water, the white little church and houses made this place so uniquely beautiful. (Thingvellir National Park is the second stop of the Golden Circle Classic tour.

Iceland

Having just visited what I considered the most beautiful country, Switzerland, then come to visit  Iceland.

My first impression was gosh, how ugly is this country!!!  There were nothing but miles and miles of

Lava.  Grey and black….

However, behind these miles of ugliness, I came to appreciate the unique beauties presented to me in one and ½ day excursions.  Afterwards, I said to myself, I will like to come back again to see more of Iceland.

National Harbor

Located in Maryland, National Harbor is a waterfront getaway just outside of down own Washington, DC. This is a place for hang out with your lover hand in hand, with your friends or families visiting you from out of town... walking around with no worries, cool breeze in the spring and early summer, enjoying window shopping and trying out different restaurants.
