Iceland Borganes Pool and Area
One of the first things we did while in Iceland was go to a public swimming pool in Borganes, we originally went to an 8 kilometer hike to a mountain top waterfall called Glymor, but the rain was coming down hard and sideways, we did not bear the hike, so stopping in the nearest town, Borganes, we visited the local public pool and thermal spa. While there we found out that an indoor scene was filmed for the huge movie, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, they used a local bakery as a Papa Johns and we visited there as well. It was this movie that inspired me to visit Iceland.

The hostel is by the main street and is easy to find, as it is located behind the church which is easy to spot when driving towards the old part of town.

Iceland - 5 Days in February 2017!
This video is a mash up of a 5 day trip we took in Iceland from Feb 1 through Feb 6 2017. It was our first trip to Iceland but we did a bunch of research in preparation to the trip so that we could maximize our time on the island. We rented a car from Sad Cars, they were great to work with. Here is a run down of the day to day action.
Day 1 - We land at KEF around 5am. A very nice man from Sad Cars picks us up from the airport and we are on our way to their office (10 min car ride) to grab our rental. After that we directly drive from KEF to Jokulsarlon Ice Lagoon. In Feb in Iceland the sun doesnt rise until 10 AM so we tried to get their for sunrise but were a little late arriving around 11 AM. After that we worked our way back on the 1 to Svartifoss. After our hike at Svartifoss we continued working our way back to Vik and the black sand beach of Reynisfjara. Stayed at the Puffin Hotel in Vik (Great little hotel).
Day 2 - Left the hotel around 8 AM and headed to Dyrholaey Arch. It was still a bit dark and it was super windy and rainy up there but still was beautiful to see. After that we drove to the DC3 Plane wreck parking lot and had about a 2 hour total hike to the wreck. Then we proceed to drive to Skogafoss. After that we continued to a nice man made pool in the middle of the mountains for a nice swim. After drying off we drove to Seljalandsfoss. From there we drove to a nice little hot spring in Hruni. Finally we finished the day seeing Gullfoss and Geysir. Stayed at Geysir Hotel. This was a very long and compact day. Kind of hectic but totally worth it.
Day 3 - We left our hotel at Geysir and headed to Thingvellir National Park to see the GoT spot where they shot the Gate of the Eyrie. After that we headed to a tiny hole in the ground hot spring that was truly epic. From that hot spring we headed around the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, heading north towards kirkjufellsfoss. From that waterfall we headed to the tip of the peninsula to Saxholl Crater. We stopped plenty of times during this drive because the views were just unreal. After Saxholl we headed to our AirBnB for the night in Borgarnes.
Day 4 - Drove from Borgarnes to Reykjavik. Stayed in Reykjavik for the day/night and watched the Superbowl @ the American Bar (was the only bar that was allowed to be open that late, the game started at 11pm). Since we were in Reykjavik on a Sunday parking was free, that was a nice perk.
Day 5 - We drove from Reykjavik to the Blue Lagoon for 9 AM. After that we drove around the Rekjanes Peninsula. We saw many different sites including Brimketill and the Bridge Between Continents. Finally we dropped off our rental at Sad Cars and then they drove us back to the airport for our flight leaving to Boston @ 4:30 PM.
Overall Iceland is truly an unbelievable place and this video doesn't do it justice. If you are thinking of going, do it!
Thanks to my friend Neaz who edited the video together.

IRI/HAARP -Continued Synthetic Plasmic Assault Being Perpetrated Upon Iceland
The Sovereign Icelandic Nation has butted heads with Globalist interests. No place exists where Future Weapons testing -usage -is acceptable...! Iceland's latitude puts it in a prime local for optimal R and D. At the same time, it is my belief that they are being targeted for their GeoPolitical actions; their need for Freedom...!

Iceland Driving 1/2 - Reykjavík to Varmahlíð
This is the first part of the Iceland Driving video.
Just for fun, I thought I'd record the drive from Reykjavík to my hometown of Akureyri. The battery on the camera didn't make it all the way, so here we have Reykjavík to Varmahlíð (the next town before Akureyri).
The total travel time was roughly 3h 40m, brought to you in just about 9.5 minutes minutes, or at 21x the legal speed limit. Pretty interesting driving around in Iceland at Mach 1.5 ;)
The places I drive through are:
Reykjavík, Mosfellsbær (0:20), Borgarnes (2:20), Bifröst (3:25), Holtavörðuheiði (4:25), Staðarskáli (5:15), Vatnsdalshólar (5:40), Víðigerði (6:35), Blönduós (7:50), Húnaver (8:50) and Varmahlíð
On this leg I stopped for swimming at Blönduós, but due to my late start I didn't have time to visit the pools in the other towns :)

Ahoj,
jmenuji se Zdeněk Trojan a živím se jako kameraman ????
Ze všeho nejvíc mě baví vzít batoh a prostě vyrazit někam, kde to neznám! ????➡????
Časem jsem zjistil, že vzpomínky jsou to nejcennější co nám zbyde z jakékoliv cesty. Osobně mi tohle ale nestačilo, a tak jsem si řekl, že bych to měl vše natáčet a sdílet s tebou! ????
Každá cesta, ať už do zahraničí nebo jenom za humna, mi pokaždé něco dala. Někdy to byli noví přátelé, které jsem potkal úplnou náhodou a dodnes jsem s nimi v kontaktu. Někdy Jsem uviděl něco, z čeho mi spadla brada a já věděl, že se mi bude odcházet velmi těžko. Ale hlavně je to pocit svobody a odhodlání se sbalit a prostě vypadnout! ????
Kamkoliv! ????????⛩
