That statement was literally true for us during our visit to Iceland, yet it was a great trip. Iceland has large areas of volcanic rock, covered with moss and lupine flowers. We enjoyed seeing the Icelandic horses and sheep grazing. We looked for puffins and walked along the coast with mountain glaciers in view. The natural hot springs are great; we loved the Blue Lagoon. I played some songs at the guest house where we spent one night; they seemed to enjoy it.
