A Cool Trip

By Linda Tancs

As record breaking heat grips the northeastern U.S. this late spring (spring!), it’s time for our collective mindset to turn to cooler climes.  How about Iceland?  Coming in this time of year at a delightfully cool 56 degrees fahrenheit in Reykjavik, you can run, hike, swim, bike, kayak or glacier hop without breaking a sweat.  And it shouldn’t hurt that Budget Travel cites Iceland as one of few places where the U.S. dollar goes further.  Of course, budget is a relative term.  If fuel costs, airline downsizings and surcharges have you staying closer to home, then you can always enjoy Icelandic culture vicariously through the Puffin cam on the tourist board’s website.
