TRAVEL<br />

Discover Ice Caves, Whales,<br />

Hidden Lagoons and Thermal Springs<br />

with a Luxury Icelandic Cruise<br />

Kevin Pilley sets sail on<br />

MS Seaventure to explore<br />

Arctic waters, ports and<br />

fjords and taste test the<br />

local Icelandic cuisine<br />

Siglufjörður, aurora<br />

Forget the volcanos, glaciers<br />

the size of Costa Rica, the<br />

ice caves, Fulmar colonies,<br />

black beaches, seals, geysers,<br />

turf-roofed ed house, the<br />

hydroclastic and pyroclastic deposits,<br />

discrete cirques, pseudo-craters, the early<br />

Quantary period terrain and all those<br />

the water-magma interfaces.<br />

And the literary culture.<br />

The main reason most people visit the<br />

world’s third largest snow cap is to<br />

combat crepey-ness.<br />

Hardly anyone misses the bubbling<br />

mineral-rich thermal spring baths. Sitting<br />

up to your neck in milk blue warm<br />

water masked by sulphur steam visibly<br />

diminishes the signs of ageing.<br />

As well as the “a la Kirk Douglas” in The<br />

Vikings yoke “Lopi” pattern sweater,<br />

the puffin beanie and stone bramble<br />

jam, most come back from Iceland with<br />

souvenirs in the form of volcano ash<br />

exfoliators, transdermal Arctic superberry<br />

pads and glacial ice melt face mists to<br />

keep the forehead furrows from turning<br />

into fissures.<br />

But nothing prepares for you for the<br />

beauty of Iceland.<br />
