I slept like a baby last night. Something about a 1-person tent that makes it feel really cozy. The birds started chirping at 2am, but I can sleep through anything. I lazed around all morning, contemplated going on a hike to Esjan Mountain, but put it off to tomorrow. Instead, I decided to explore more on foot.
The Reykjavik Botanical Gardens are right behind the campsite, and are gorgeous.
I then went to the Laugardalslaug Swimming Pool next door. Wow! It beats any of the Scandinavian Spas I’ve been to in the past, and only for 900ISK. I spent like 3 hours in waters or varying temperature, swam a few breathless laps in the Olympic Pool, went down the huge slide with a bunch of kids. Definitely will go back.
I came back and passed out in my tent. Too exhausted from doing nothing.
