Last night in Iceland: December 2, 2017

We met one of Santa's very friendly elves (taking a little time off from working at the nearby North Pole) to celebrate the coming Yule season.  Actually, this guy is a snowmobile tour guide.

Light show at Hallgrimskirkja.  So weird!  Made the church look all wavy.

Before heading back to the airport to spend the night, as there was no way we were going to miss the 6:10 a.m. (!) check in time for our 9:10 a.m. flight, we drove to the end of the peninsula on which the airport is located to see the Reykjavesniti lighthouse (1878), the oldest in Iceland.  It was easy to find.  A modern lighthouse next to it was sweeping the sea with its light.  The wind was so strong I could barely hold my phone still enough to take the photo.
