On our last day of going to see tourist
attractions we went to Aldeyjarfoss waterfall as we loved Gullfoss yesterday. Its located in the north
of Iceland within the Highlands of Iceland. One of the most interesting features
of the waterfall is the contrast between the black basalt columns and the white
waters of the fall. The river Skjálfandafljót drops here and the basalt belongs
to a lava field. Tumbling through a narrow passage into a wide basin, the black
basalt columns provide a stark contrast against the thrashing white foam.

To finish off our trip that evening we went to
visit Dynjandi the largest waterfall in
the Westfjords region of Iceland and is considered to be one of the most
impressive waterfalls in all of Iceland. The waterfall in made up of 7
waterfalls, each with its own name, one of which is Dynjandi (thunderous). I
was in awe of the height and complexity of the waterfall it was truly amazing
to look at and a perfect end to the trip.
Iceland was such an amazing country to visit as
it was so picturesque it was one of my favourite countries and I would go back
in a heartbeat. I can definitely see why it's so famous for it's Volcanoes and
Waterfalls with each of them being equally magnificent. I really don't want for
this trip to end and go home but we are leaving for our plane in about ten
minutes where we will fly back to Dublin.
