Day 3

The Golden Circle.
As Doolie, our tour guide said, this is the first day of winter. Snow was not around yesterday.

We had all weathers. Snow, Rain, Gales, Sun. Always cold though and the stunning scenery made it worth wile, as did the humorous Doolie!

I was hoping for a Youtube moment!

Silliness. In the "Whats On" book, one of the challenges was to be a Viking, by eating Ice Cream in the rain.
