 After celebrating the new year in the Bahamas, we selected a diametrically opposed climate - Icelandic winter - in what would be a whirlwind trip along the southern coast of the wintry isle. In January, the sun rises just slightly over the horizon at around 10:30 am and dips back down just after 3 pm, creating a sense of perpetual sunset, We flew overnight from Tampa airport, and, due to our change of flights at the last-minute, we were stuck in different rows in the back of the plane on a very bumpy flight into Keflavik Airport. We touched down at 7am, picked up our rental car and arrived at the Blue Lagoon for opening at 8am in the pitch blackness.
