Iceland, a bridge between two continents

To see this was rather amazing. Took me right back to my school days learning about plate tectonics with Mr Isherwood !! This place, lava-scarred Reykjanes peninsula is located over the world’s major plate boundaries, the Mid Atlantic Ridge. Going by the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates drift theory, these plates are continuously drifting apart owing to the great forces of nature. It was remarkable to think Ray and I were at one point standing on different continents. This is a must see if visiting Iceland.
