Round the World in 30 Days

Photo of the Day – Blue Lagoon, Iceland

Located 45 minutes outside of Reykjavik, Iceland’s most famous attraction is actually a combination of mineral-rich freshwater and seawater from deep within the earth that is naturally heated to between 98-102 degrees fahrenheit. The milky-blue waters flow over vast black lava fields giving the whole place an other-worldly feel. The futuristic-looking Svartsengi geothermal plant in the distance serves as the R&D center for the spa skin care line and adds to the cosmic effect. You really do feel like you could be on another planet, I’ve never seen anything quite like it.  A soak in the Blue Lagoon was one of the many highlights of my stop in Iceland.
