| Goodbye to The Ocean Endeavour |
We landed in Reykjavik on Tuesday July 4, 2023. It had been a short night. because Jason, our expedition leader, wanted us out of our rooms when we went for breakfast. We left our duffle bags outside the room and took our day packs upstairs to the lounge.
The folks who were taking flights left in a bus at 8:00 am. We were staying in Reykjavik and Adventure Canada allowed us to leave our luggage on the dock under their tent until we found our hotel and returned for the luggage. We weren’t sure about where to pick up the rental car but, through a series of phone calls, Richard managed to get that sorted out.
We had lunch at a place called ‘The Laundry’ and, yes, there really was a laundry in the basement of the building. The folks at the table next to us struck up a conversation when they saw our jackets. Turns out they were about to board The Ocean Endeavour for the circumnavigation of Iceland.
It took us about 45 minutes to walk to our hotel and we decided not to do that while dragging our duffles with us so we called a cab, returned to the dock, picked up our bags, and said goodbye to the Adventure Canada folks. The last part of our adventure was underway.
