After our tour last year we decided that we just had to go back to Iceland. It was such a fascinating country and there was just so much we didn't get to see. We didn't fancy the long ferry journey again as it took out nearly a week in traveling and we were lucky with the calm weather and Frank wasn't keen to push her luck for another calm crossing. Therefore even though we aren't that keen on flying we booked a couple of tickets with Iceland Express from Stansted to Keflavík.
