Hotel Laki was pure lush, it was a top quality hotel. I had waffles and syrup for breakfast and packed our suitcases ready for the day ahead. I was in a room with Angus Farr and Matthew Vickers. According to Angus, I was sleep talking last night (something about a telephone).
We went to the beach to look at the basalt columns formed by cooled lava. Thankfully, the weather was clear so we had good vision of what was around us. The waves were extremely violent and came in very fast and were huge! After a good hour we got back onto the bus and make our way to Skogafoss Waterfall, where we all had our lunch. The waterfall was outstanding but Jamie Stevens and Max Dalton stood at the foot of the waterfall, and therfore getting absolutely soaking wet.
After that we had a long drive to the the Blue Lagoon, but we stopped at "Icewear" (a wool and souvenir store). I was going to buy my family some presents but it would of cost me nearly 40 000 krona, and sadly non of the other gifts were to my family´s tastes.
When we arrived at the Blue Lagoon, we were all desperate to get into the warm blue waters. we all had such a good time and it was an amazing experience.
Late afternoon the teachers took us to a pizza resturant near our hotel, Jake Glowienko and Sandy Stainthorpe we the champions of our pizza competition with 13 slices of pizza each. I on the other hand, only had 4 as I felt slightly sick after the Blue Lagoon. After our meal we presented our teachers and Dave (the bus driver/ guide) with gifts, which we all donated money towards, for being such good hosts and for taking us to the fabulous country. And then we went to the hotel, to get a good night sleep before getting up at 5AM, ready for our jounrey back to England.
