Iceland Day 4

7th March 2017 Tuesday

We woke up early and drove to Jökulsárlón. The meeting point was this Glacier Cafe, beside the Glacier Lagoon.

Looking into the lagoon….. I took this picture because it truly reflect what commonly known as tip of iceberg (the percentage difference in density between ice and water showed up as the mass of ice above the water).

Took a rest before we got out of the cave…. The ice wall looked like frozen aquarium.
