Awed in Iceland

During a tour of Iceland in September 2007, we visited the waterfall Gullfoss, which was spectacular. We could walk right up to the edge of it. In its form, it almost reminded me of a wedding cake.

At Þingvellir, I stood on the bridge between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. It felt as if I were standing on a world map. It was amazing. The fault line seems to go on forever.
