The second day we slept in a bit. After breakfast we went to the penis museum.
In the afternoon we'd booked a helicopter tour. I thought it would be a great way to see more in our limited time.
The weather was good so we got to land on top of Eyjafjallajökull which is the volcano that erupted in 2010.
Unfortunately Yanmei got a little airsick towards the end of the flight, however she didn't need to use the barfbag. Earlier she took a few nice videos with her phone, which capture the experience better than photos do. Next time we travel we will bring a real video camera. Maybe a GoPro or something like that.
That evening I decided to give the sunset another try. Even as I was driving down to the sea wall I could tell it was going to be good.
I actually left too early. The sky kept changing colors well past this. The sun doesn't go that far down beyond the horizon so basically the whole night is just one long sunset/sunrise. Yanmei was up at 2am and she said the clouds were still red and orange.
