Hi I am Elliot. I have a stickbot. I am bringing him on my trip around the world. It is swag. In every country I am going to take a different picture with him. I took my first picture in Iceland. Next I’m going to Poland. The flight was 5 hours to Iceland. The next day we went to the Blue Lagoon. There was mud that you put on your face. Three different types: silica mask, algae mask and volcano scrub. I liked the volcano scrub best. The algae one was disgusting.

In the evening my dad went to get pizza for dinner. It was a really good pizza.

In the evening I wrote this thing. And then I played on my ipad.

The next day I took a 4-hour flight to Poland.

Bye bye everybody,
Elliot

Iceland wasn’t originally on the destination list. It was added as a layover on our way to Poland.

So glad we got a chance to experience some of its beauty, even if only for a couple of days.

Iceland was kept simple with only a few spots to visit—Reykjavik and the Blue Lagoon—rather than trying to see everything in a short period of time.

We arrived in the early hours of the morning to our hotel, no problem with checkin, and jumped straight to bed. After waking up past noon, we planned to explore a hot spring that’s more off the beaten path, but we’re glad we spent our afternoon at the Blue Lagoon.

The Blue Lagoon was gorgeous. The kids were psyched and were kept occupied for approx 2 hours with smoothies and silica masks. By hour three they were done.

The day ended with kids starting their homeschooling assignments.

The next morning we had an amazing breakfast at the hotel (yogurt, musli, fresh bread, cheese and prosciutto–wish I took a pic!) and explored downtown Reykjavik before heading off to the airport.

Tonight we fly to Poland.
