A Week Into Iceland

Here I am a week into this crazy adventure and I wanted to share some photos to show everyone back home some views of Reykjavik.

The view out of my hotel window looking to the West/Northwest.

A typical Reykjavik street, looks like it was dusk but really taken around 10:30 AM.

Inside the Hallgrimskirkja the largest church in Reykjavik, the outside is under construction so it is not really all that photogenic at the moment.

A very interesting relief map of the Icelandic island, it is in the town hall and is quite large, it was painstakingly created by 4 men working for four and a half years. It is essentially a giant topographic map of the entire island. It has incredible detail and can be taken apart to allow the space to be used for other functions. It is quite rad, I will put up a detail of the map later to give a sense of what it looks like up close.

Some cool art on a random building. There is a lot of street art around Reykjavik and this is just one example. It seems that on just about every other building you can find something cool, and a lot of the time you have to look close or you will miss it.
