Just got back yesterday.
If you're doing a glacier hike, you're going to need ski pants and gloves. Prepare for cold and wind, especially in the south coast.

What places would you recommend in Reykjavik on a snowy day? I'll be staying a little over a mile west of the city center and probably will just walk in and see the sights on Sunday. The church for sure. Maybe a couple of museums. Maybe the whale boat since the winds won't be much. Restaurants aren't a big deal to me, probably hotdogs from what I've read. I've had genuine Icelandic seafood on Icelandair, half of it was
