If anyone is interested, the store Elko in the airport (prior to going to customs)has Simmin SIM cards for unlocked phones. $24 for 100mins voice/ 100 SMS messages/ and 1Gb of data. You can add 5G of data for another $20 if you want to use Skype or other data app for calls back to U.S.. We will be getting them and figured this would make it easier for all of us to communicate with each other and if we need to make local calls to businesses (restaurants and such). Here is the article where I got this info by the way. http://icelandwithkids.com/2015/12/12/using-a-cell-phone-in-iceland-part-3-icelandic-sim-cards/ Vik Beach http://www.travelandleisure.com/slideshows/worlds-strangest-beaches/18 ====Things to Do==== **[[https://secure.kensingtontours.com/public/quote.aspx?tripRef=968924Ron7|Kensington Customized Tour]]** **[[http://phallus.is/en/ | Penis Museum]]** Open Every Day 10am to 6pm. **[[http://www.bluelagoon.com/ | Blue Lagoon]] ** 12/31 9:00 - 17:00 All others 9:00 - 20:00 **[[https://www.tripadvisor.com/AttractionProductDetail-g315853-d276576-a_product.5590AAITB-Thingvellir_National_Park-Thingvellir_South_Region.html | Mid Atlantic Ridge]] ** [[http://tours.wowair.com/tours/?tag=northern-lights_1&utm_source=PAX+til+KEF+%C3%AD+okt-des%2716&utm_campaign=ed184606b3-03102016+Farþegalisti+-+Northernligts+November&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_eb1408454f-ed184606b3-178458669 | Wowair discount Tours]] Snorkeling the Continental Rift https://www.dive.is/diving-snorkeling-tours/snorkeling-day-tours/silfra-snorkeling-day-tour/ Ice caves https://www.extremeiceland.is/en/activity-tours-iceland/glacier-hiking-iceland/ice-caves Glacier Lagoon http://icelagoon.is/ [[http://expertvagabond.com/ring-road-trip-iceland/ | Ring Road Story]] ====Accommodations==== {{:icelandaptmap.png?direct&300|}} https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/15434905 ====Voting==== * Austin, TX * Athens * Edinburgh * Havana * Lisbon * Reykjavik * Yellowstone
