taking the right-hand side window seat on your flight to Iceland has some extra perks built-in :-)
Piękny, zielony kemping Langidalur w Thorsmork, na początku (lub końcu) szlaku Laugavegur. Krótka relacja z wyjątkowo pięknego i ciepłego dnia w lipcu 2023...
Leaving the main room inside the Heops Pyramid, Giza, Egypt - truly a claustrophobic experience :-o
You actually need to be in a pretty good shape to get in and out of there - some tunnels are so tiny you almost crawl on your knees...

Jokulsarlon ice caves
Ice caves (or glacial caves) are some of the most beautiful, mesmerising and unique places you can visit in Iceland.
This movie presents to you the unique beauty of the Jokulsarlon ice cave. It goes by the name of Diamond Ice Cave or Sapphire Ice Cave, but is also referred to by the name of the glacier in which it is created, so as a Vatnajokull glacier ice cave. It's all the same 'family' of ice caves and on any particular day the tours go to where the access is the easiest/safest and where the views are the best.
You will learn all there is to learn - where are these ice caves located, how to get on a tour to them, what can you expect and what are the alternatives - in this extensive article: https://rumbomundo.com/ice-caves-icelandic-natural-marvels/
Lots of photos and practical hints on visiting an ice cave in the article. This means both for this specific ice cave, as well as others, including the ones that you can visit in the SUMMERTIME!
But if you want to jump on the tour right away, here's a recommended one starting in Jokulsarlon: https://rumbomundo.tourdesk.is/Tour/Item/7037/1/Ice_cave_-_Inside_the_largest_glacier
Jokulsarlon is about 250 miles (near 400 km) east of Reykjavik, so getting there on a single day tour is not the best idea. Hence for all those who don't want to drive in Icelandic winter and are set for a 'basecamp' in Reykjavik, here's a 3-day tour that includes visiting this cave (and great many other top places in Iceland South Coast and Golden Circle): https://rumbomundo.tourdesk.is/Tour/Item/345390/1/3-Day_Tour_To_Jokulsarlon_|_The_Golden_Circle,_South_Coast,_Glacier_Lagoon__Glacier_Hike
Let me know if you have any questions in the comments here or on the blog - I'm eager to hear them and help you plan a visit to this absolutely amazing place.

Schronisko Fimmvorduskali na szlaku Fimmvorduhals. Tańsze i ładniejsze niż leżące nieco niżej, po południowej stronie Baldvinsskali. Z wodą bywa tu krucho, ale widoki są absolutnie zabójcze. No z tym, że schronisko w zasadzie nie leży na samym szlaku, a zejście do niego wymaga przejścia przez "nieoczywisty" strumień. Ale śniadanko czy kolacja na tarasie z tym widokiem - miodzio...

kemping Langidalur - na samym końcu (albo początku!) słynnego szlaku Laugavegur; w okolicy do dyspozycji mamy też kilka innych, krótszych szlaków - takich na pół dnia lub maksimum jeden dzień. Kemping nie ma może żadnej szczególnej zalety czy przewagi wobec sąsiadów z Thorsmork, ale jest zielony, kameralny i stricte dla ludzi z plecakami :-) Nocleg w chatce drogi jak czort - stawka na 2024 rok to 13,000 ISK, czyli ponad 400 zł za osobę/noc, a i tak przecież trzeba mieć własny śpiwór, za prysznic płacimy oddzielnie (2024: 900 ISK, czyli już ok. 30 zł), a wszelkie sanitariaty są na zewnątrz... Ale jest tylko jeden Laugavegur... :-)
Sometimes it's good, sometimes... not so good :-)
Good that we were out of Etosha at the time - would be a bit more tricky with all the lions assisting and such...
BTW: anyone knows exactly what are the rules about it? like when you're inside Etosha, but outside of the camp and you have to change a tyre - what do you do?

Jaskinia lodowa Katla, chociaż może nie tak spektakularnie piękna, jak ta przy Jokulsarlon, to może nawet lepiej pokazuje prawdziwą naturę, potęgę i ogrom lodowca. Naszym zdaniem jest to nawet ciekawsze od spaceru po powierzchni lodowca - jak np. na Sólheimajökull, właśnie dlatego, że tutaj widzimy go od środka...
Wszystko o różnych jaskiniach lodowych (czy lodowcowych), ich porówanie i konkretne oferty zwiedzania jak zwykle na blogu: https://rumbomundo.com/pl/jaskinie-lodowe-lodowcowe/

hieny na stepie... wieczorny game drive zapadł nam w pamięci głównie chyba nie tyle przez zobaczenie żerujących hien, ale przez poczucie stęchłego zapachu, w którym się to odbywało... no nie do zapomnienia...
An adult impala is too much, even for a pair of cheetahs, to eat up at a single "seating"; so they eat what they can and then try to chase away all the scavengers and others looking for a free meal; like this shakal here - he gets a few bits and the cheetah is not trying to hunt him, but chased away he is.

Halali is definitely one of the camps worth recommending. The camping grounds offer lots of shade, amenities are OK, swimming pool is really OK :-) and the waterhole is located some 200 m away from the camp, which makes it a lot more attractive for the wild animals. At night we got rhinos, ellies, hyenas and a honey badger, but even during the day the sightings were really fine.
[the clip runs at 200% speed - in real life these sightings take a loooot of time :-) )
