No matter how much research you do on a vacation, there are some thing you never know until you get there.
In this case, that something was the necessity of four-wheel-drive vehicle to get anywhere near a glacier, or even to navigate what are marked as main roads.
We've tried to get to Snaefellsnessjokul glacier, the gladiers near Husafell, and also to lava tubes - underground passages created as lava cools - near Husafell. The coup de grace, though, was turning on the road to Thingvelir and having the pavement end.
We've regouped, or recalculated as GPS man says. We're just south of Reykjavik on the road toward Keflavik. Tomorrow we're going to try the Reykjanes peninsula, which includes the Blue Lagoon.
And see if we can hire a jeep to tour these remote places.
