The best thing about my trip to Iceland back in 2006 was that we arrived from a harbor in the eastern fjord area, rather than Reykjavik, since we took a ferry from Denmark. Reykjavik really is in the most boring area of the country and the parts you really want to see are mostly in the east. The closest really cool stuff to Reykjavik are the snaefellsnes peninsula and that other big peninsula in the northwest that I've forgotten the name of. Really the best way to go to Iceland is to do a big ring road tour by car.

All the food is really fresh and nice and you should try it. My worst dish there was actually some kind of crab spaghetti in a fancy place in Reykjavik. Most of the rest stops along the road had better plain dishes made with fresh ingredients. When I went there, I actually stayed in schools that were closed and converted into hotels for the summer. It wasn't extremely comfortable but fine for me and usually they were in some convenient location. It let me visit villages where there were no ordinary hotels. My favorite place was Husavik, I saw a blue whale and the town has a nice seaside atmosphere, it's also close to Myvatn, Dimmuborgir and the weird desert area next to Myvatn.

It's cute to watch puffins take off. They're basically balls of lard with wings so it takes them a really long time to gain height and speed.

I really liked the dried fish you could buy in any supermarket. Great with beer.
