An old Russian Missile Carrier will be the transport of choice today to go up and over the Langjokull Glacier |
Still see the old army green inside the drivers quarters |
For those really rough days of weather but not needed today |
Enter if you dare lol |
As i looked back it reminded me of the James Bond 007 intros .......maybe there is danger ahead haha |
Langjokull is the second largest ice cap in Iceland |
Cool ice sculptures to be found inside |
We are about 30 meters (100 ft ) below the surface |
The tunnels are also used by researchers and students from the University of Iceland to measure ice movements |
Langjokull means long glacier |
The ice is up to 580m ( 1,900 ft ) thick |
An actual Wedding Chapel inside the glacier.......new meaning of giving your partner a piece of ice for their finger hahaha |
I am sure there was some machinery involved lol........as these tunnels took 15 months to build |
It is the Worlds longest ice tunnel |
On my way back down |
Winter conditions can happen instantly |
I cannot wait to adventure to Iceland! Going inside an Ice Glacier is at the top of my Bucket list! :)
