Report from an Icelandic glacier
Written by Karen BryanYesterday afternoon I had this feeling of incredulity as I stood on a glacier in Iceland taking in the amazing views.

A few days earlier I’d received a tweet asking me if I’d like to come to Iceland to report on the Canary Islands “No Winter Blues” campaign kicking off with Mission Iceland. Now here I was less than one week later standing on a Icelandic glacier.

It was a bumpy ride in the jeep up the snowy track to the glacier, making me feel rather queasy.
We even had a picnic on the glacier. I perched on a snowmobile in order to have a resting place for my food and get my feet off the frozen ground.
It was a wonderful if somewhat stomach churning, chilly experience. Even although it was cloudy most of the time on the glacier the light was amazing.
Thanks for sharing the videos Karen.
Looking forward to reading more about your tip to Iceland.
Kef – I will be blogging about my jeep tour soon. I didn’t have time to do Iceland justice, would’ve loved to go on whale watching trip and see more of the countryside.
