Soaking in the sparkles
It was then time to soak in our
surroundings, as the tour was
nearly finished. Brilliant and
shining bright like a diamond (as
Rihanna would say), the encom-
passing ice boulders glistened like
blinding, twinkling jewels, and we
struggled to take it all in before
heading back to shore. Most of the
icebergs have been in this frozen
state for almost unimaginable pe-
riods of time—since long before
your grandparents were born. So
as the Sólheimajökull glacier con-
tinues to melt, another wonder is
born—that of an icy lagoon just
begging to be floated along and
reflected on.
