We're Off To: Iceland!

Iceland wasn't really planned this year, but we saw a nonstop fare deal that we just couldn't pass up - less than $400/person! And since Iceland has been very high on our wish list for a while, it was just perfect timing. It's our first experience on WOW Air, but we're prepared with plenty of water, snacks, and downloaded movies for our 7 hour nonstop "no frills" flight.

We'll get to explore both Reykjavik and the South Coast. We'll be checking out the Blue Lagoon, the Golden Circle, taking a zodiac boat around a glacier lagoon, and snowmobiling on a glacier. We will also get to experience the midnight sun. It's going to a wild 5 days! Hoping we still have some money left over when this trip is over - Iceland is CRAZY expensive!

In other news...

This will also be our first "post-Southwest Airlines" trip. If you haven't heard, Jason accepted a job at Facebook and starts mid July, so we'll be packing up shortly after Iceland to move to California. We are SO excited about this move, but are obviously sad to leave our friends and family in Texas. The Bay Area is one of my favorite places and we can't wait to explore California.

Since we have the pup, we'll be road-tripping it from Texas to the Bay Area, so the recaps of our trips may be a bit delayed. Also, the blog will continue so we can document our California adventures and other international trips as well, but it will definitely need a new name - recommendations welcomed! :)
