Up, up and at 'em! It's bright and early, and in a few hours, you'll be in the move again. Are you tired of reindeer and hiking yet? You better not be tired of reindeer and hiking, 'cause Iceland has plenty.

So go get that breakfast spread, kids.

If you slept the rest of the way to the hotel after that hike, we don't blame you at all. We rest for the night at a country hotel close to Lake Lagarfljot (Lagarfljót). Supposedly the giant worm, Lagarfljotsormur, resides in the depths of the lake: Iceland’s version of the Loch Ness Monster. Maybe the northern lights will dance for us again tonight? On this tour our search for them never ends!

We're staying at Lake Hotel Egilsstadir, which has charming rooms--modern styled ones for the students, and antique-style for the teachers--and a renowned restaurant, noted for its innovative use of local ingredients. The town itself is mostly other hotels and guesthouses, but you can go for a wander and find a couple of different bistros, and some grocery stores if you need to stock up on bus snacks.

Welcome to another morning in Iceland, Fandomites! Get your fill of breakfast, and maybe grab a Thermos of coffee (coffee, Dee, oh my god) for the road, because it's going to be another busy day!
