Chapter 398, Day Trip
Boarding a bus for a tour group.
This is a tour group recommended by Ji Qing, the tour guide is a 40-year-old slightly chubby British, there are still a lot of British people in Iceland, most of them are the husbands of Icelandic girls.
Icelandic women prefer the British, while men prefer the Thais.
They don't know when they liked the Thai Ye Kai, but in the end, they found that many of the Thai women they got back were young ladies, which stopped the trend.
I can't find an honest person in my country, so I found Iceland?
The topic came back, at this time Ye Kai was sitting on a bus, it was raining heavily outside the window, and the tour guide was talking in a very magnetic voice: "My name is Jack, I have been a tour guide for six years, and then I will use my voice as a radio anchor to chat with everyone, I hope you have a good trip today." ”
The voice was good, but Jack himself was a slightly chubby and somewhat short Englishman, with a long beard on his face...... In fact, Ye Kai felt that the beard was very good-looking and very manly.
But a person has to be tall and strong, and his face must not be round. If a person with a long beard has a round face, even if he has a good-looking beard, it will look sloppy.
Still, this tour guide is very interesting. Speak with a lot of humor.
This is Ye Kai's first time participating in a tour group, and I don't know if all the tour guides are as humorous as Jack, telling jokes or some history of Iceland along the way.
Even if some Ye Kai has already understood, he still listens to it with relish.
At this time, one of the tourists asked, "Is there really a polar day in Iceland? The sun doesn't set all day long, and the sun is still in the sky at one or two o'clock in the morning?"
The tour guide said yes, he remembered that Ye Kai should also be a foreigner living in Iceland, and turned his head to ask Ye Kai what he thought of the summer in Iceland.
"I've only just arrived in Iceland and haven't been through the Icelandic summer yet, but now it's October, and the Icelandic winter looks like it's coming soon, and I'm looking forward to the polar nights of summer. ”
The sun doesn't set all day, and the sun doesn't come out all day, it's a very interesting experience.
The tour guide added with a smile:
"Living in Iceland is a cycle of summer waiting for winter, winter waiting for summer, but in general, Icelanders like summer, every summer, it's bright 24 hours a day, you are completely free, you can sleep whenever you want, you can get up at 1 or 2 in the morning to go shopping, maybe you can meet the neighbor next door and open the door with you......
The tour guide is very talkative, and he has talked about many topics about the polar day, and the tourists are fascinated by it.
At this time, I passed by a small town, the name of the town is Hot Spring Town, and you know that there are many hot springs and many vegetable greenhouses...... Most of the land in Iceland is uncultivateable, and most of the fruits and vegetables that are eaten in Iceland are imported from abroad or come from such greenhouses.
"This is a spa town. "With 2,000 residents, it's the largest town in Iceland, and many of them used to live in Reykjavík, and they got tired of the city life and moved here. ”
Indeed, the pace of the town is much slower than in the city, and the absence of tourists makes it seem like the town is still asleep, waiting to be woken up.
The car was going to the glacier lagoon today, a total of 15 hours round trip.
However, you won't feel bored in the car, as there is free Wi-Fi, and there are European standard sockets behind each window seat, as well as two USB charging ports.
There is a toilet in the car, so it is also convenient to drink water and eat something halfway, and there is no panic at all.
After stopping at the side of the road at Skógafoss, the guide asked everyone if they wanted to stop here, after all, this is also a famous attraction in Iceland, and everyone agreed to get off here.
But Ye Kai had already seen it, and it was raining heavily outside, so he chose to stay in the car and watch the waterfall and tourists through the window.
Twenty minutes later, people returned to the car one after another, bringing with them a strong moisture in the air...... All were drenched in the rain, even though they had raincoats and umbrellas.
But umbrellas hardly work in Iceland.
Jack counted the numbers and continued on his way, and as he got farther and farther away from Reykjavík, the rain gradually stopped.
"There's a word in Icelandic called glgga vedur, glgga means window, vedur is weather, guess what it means?
"I guess the weather outside the window is good. ”
"good, it seems that you have learned Icelandic well. Jack boasted.
Ye Kai thought proudly in his heart...... Isn't that good, the native level......
Jack continued: "Don't look at the weather outside, the sun is still out, but if you go out, it will definitely be cold, and you can't take off your clothes when you get out of the car. ”
When it comes to the weather on the ground, he quickly turns the conversation to the underground: "If you think it's too cold, dig a hole in the ground and see what's inside, it's usually getting warmer and warmer, and maybe it can detonate a certain volcano." ”
After that, I didn't stop for a long time, until Iceland was an hour or two away, when I stopped in front of a restaurant for a 40-minute lunch break.
Seafood in Iceland is still quite cheap, but you can get tired of eating it all the time, even if it is delicious.
I always feel that there is no substitute for rice, and rice and various dishes will not get tired even if you eat it for a lifetime...... Or maybe it's because of the versatility of rice.
Set off again and listen to the history and stories of the nearby town as your guide tells you the end of the tour before you know it...... Glacier lagoon.
It's one of the most magical stretches of Highway 1 in Iceland, with broken ice floating in the water and a howling wind that can be seen with the naked eye.
Even in the summer, you still have to wear a down jacket when you come here.
However, Ye Kai saw a young lady wearing a sweater and scarf on the upper half of her body, but only wearing transparent stockings on her lower body, she didn't feel cold, and the expression on her face could only be seen happy.
As soon as I stopped, I swooped down.
"The girl is really a magical animal...... Ye Kai sighed, and also got out of the car, holding a camera in his hand to shoot all the way, he was shooting the video materials needed to make the second vlog.
Jökulsárlón, also known as Jökulsárlón, is a glacial lagoon. Iceland's largest glacier, Vatnajökull glacier, flows into the sea here, forming a lagoon before entering the sea, and the famous Diamond Ice Beach flows out of the estuary.
The beach is littered with ice blocks of various sizes, which glow diamond-like in the sunlight and are too dazzling to look at.
