We woke up early and stopped at a Tesco for breakfast pastries and to take out some pounds to thank Amy’s Uber driver friend. We thought this sign by the rental car return was funny.
Matt actually did a really good job driving on the left. Navigating was busy with all the round abouts and mini round abouts. I had to remind him a few times to stay left, but he was really pretty good.
We got the phone! What a blessing that guy was willing to meet up with us.
Then off to the airport! Adi and Delaney were checking their life lines on their hands. 😂
Baby bug was not feeling great. Traveling and staying up late reading had caught up to her big time.
We had an almost 3 hour flight to Reykjavik and we saw a lighthouse as we got close to the airport. ❤️
We had a weird situation with our tickets there. I’ve been using Hopper for our flights and for some reason they got our tickets - both with Iceland Air - to Reykjavik and then to Baltimore using different confirmation numbers, so we were supposed to leave the secure area, pick up our luggage, pay for it again, and go through customs and security again. Thankfully we were able to talk to someone at the Iceland Air customer service desk and he went above and beyond to help us. He made sure they forwarded our bag onto our next flight and didn’t charge us. He saved us a ton of time and headache and I made sure to mention him when I rated and reviewed it Iceland Air.
For lunch I got a famous traditional Icelandic hotdog and it was fine. It had raw onion and crispy onion, mustard and aioli.
We got off the plane and walked across the tarmac, so we’re counting that we’ve been to Iceland. ✔️
The girls got Sbarro’s pizza and Matt got pasta salad and we all shared pineapple and watermelon.
The girls sat together on our flight home and Matt and I sat together.
Our seats were directly behind the first class seats and we had SO much room! My feet were stretched all the way out and still not touching the seat in front of us! It was pretty sweet! It was almost a 6 hour flight and they didn’t feed us so that was lame, but otherwise it was pretty great.
We made it to BWI by 7:30 and picked up our rental van by 8:30 and made it home by 10:00. We were all happy to be home and so exhausted that we didn’t even brush our teeth.

It was such a fantastic trip and we feel so blessed we were able to do it safely and happily. We’ve got the travel bug in a big way and can’t wait for our next adventure!
