Strange rocks, geysers and thermal pools,
Deep canyons with thundering waterfalls,
Sulphurous vents that really stank,
Hot water without a hot water tank,
A very old Saga about Erik the Red,
And his recently rebuilt homestead,
Active volcanoes which are overdue,
Shrinking glaciers where once they grew,
Long place names like Eyjafjallajökull,
And fjords which are truly beautiful,
Puffins and terns with cliff-top nests,
Fish on the menu for hotel guests,
Lava caves that inspired Jules Verne,
Narrow bridges where you wait your turn,
Colourful houses and vivid rainbows,
Weather that blows and shines and snows!
All these are things that we’ve just seen,
So can you guess where we have been?
