    Lea - I really like your Iceland series. It’s a bucket list destination for me to ride on my bike. I did this as a family trip in 2021 and I am stunned by the amazing beauty of this country. Looks like we will attending the same wedding in June this summer. Would love to find some time to chat with you- cheers Oliver

    Hi Lea,
    What an absolutely amazing episode. You are so right in calling it other wordly. What an incredible country.
    The waterfall was so cool, definitely worth the stop.
    I'm sure you enjoyed the hot pool, and yes, I'm jealous! 😊
    Safe travels and see you in the next one. Greetings to your partner and Little A. ❤

    This was an unreal video! That black road winding through the lush green is mesmerizing. It looks like there is no end to the beautiful landscape I can't wait to ride there! In your last video, I loved the drone shot of you lying on the black sand beach in your bright red swimsuit. That was a beautiful scene until you got fully soaked! I almost died laughing because you couldn't get out of the water fast enough! 🤣🤣 That water must have been ice cold! Thank you for this wonderful video Lady!
    Ride SAFE and BE safe! 👍👍
    Of course you and your family get the usual from me with no Broccoli for little "A".

    Good evening Lea,
    Sounds like in Norway. The moment you leave the main road, you’re alone and you have an adventure. Most interesting places there were off the main road.
    Beautiful drone footage of the incredible landscape. Pakvil road is magnificent.
    Skipping a waterfall (or castle) would be very difficult for me. I really want to take pictures of them.
    Torfhus sounds a lot as the dutch word turfhuis. A house made of turf or peat made by the laborers who dug the peat for fuel for the fireplace.
    There’s a cold water geyser in the Eifel mountains; the water doesn’t reach that high as this one in Iceland.
    Now that’s a waterfall. I’ve seen many in Norway and the Alps.

    • @Got2Go

    Just an idea to think about when you come to or past a site that you would like to see, or you think we would like to see, but your partner doesn't want to or you both feel it is too crowded, you can always pull over from a short distance away from the crowd and let your drone do the viewing. That way you can still see it from your drone footage and share it with us as well. Just sharing an idea for you to think about. Great video as always!

    I suppose once one has seen a few waterfalls, they become less spectacular. Or, maybe he’s just grumpy. 😂 Nah, I get it. It’s like Europe’s ABC tours - Another Bloody Castle or Another Bloody Church. Still, they are all beautiful.

    • @Got2Go
      @Got2Go  Před 3 měsíci

      😂😂😂 yes I guess that’s how it is. To be honest for me it was also more the crowds - the part of Iceland where we didn’t stop if pretty busy so I just didn’t feel like seeing another waterfall with 100 people…
