Water on the moon. That's what I kept thinking as we drove though Iceland. The landscape is striking and stark, yet water emerges from the earth in abundance. At ease in their surroundings, streams and rivers flow in shades of crystal blue. The water is so clear you can easily count every rock on the river bed. I had this crazy desire to plunge my hand into the water, but every time the thought started to take hold, my practical brain said, "it's freakin' ice cold, you nut!" Thank goodness for rationale thoughts....I should probably have more of those! All in all a gorgeous drive with lakes, geysers and waterfalls.
