Akureyri to Reykjavík, Friday, February 22, 2019

We're heading allllll the way back to Reykjavík today, where the weather is warmer and misty, but first we get to see the stunning landscape of western Iceland, visit another waterfall, and most importantly, go whale watching!

Oh, hell yeah.

Someone put a leash on Beaker, okay? Juuuuuust in case.

Kanan would take that text, absolutely. And then, after a few minutes, would send her the first photo he'd taken the entire trip; a whale, breaching.

He wasn't showing off, he was sharing.

That's a whale. Little bit like ocean purrgil, if I had to compare it to anything. Coming up for breath, I think.

He was absolutely taking and sending a few more pictures, now, yes. Congrats, Rey. You were the entire reason Kanan would have any sort of photographic evidence of this trip.

Iceland. School trip- cold, but nice scenery. And big wildlife, apparently.

Instead of a photo, now Kanan was sending video.

Rey was going to watch that forever. Foreeeeeever.

It's so much water!

These were things she would never really get over.

Ahch-To was really going to be a trip, wasn't it?

There have been waterfalls, too. Next one we come across today, I'll send video of that, too.

It might or might not include bonus Beaker in a barrel.

thatwaslucky: (ooh?)

For several reasons!

What else have you seen?

A glacier, hot springs, geysers, and lights in the nighttime sky.

But, you know, he was the worst tourist ever.

I'm so jealous.

She could admit that about this. And maybe she watched the video again.

I'd send a whale to Jakku, but I don't imagine it would be very happy.

At least she'd get her absolute fill of space puffins someday?

That would get messy very fast.

I think the whale would prefer to stay in the water, yes. Suppose we'll have to settle for me taking more pictures?

Then more pictures it is. Waterfalls, hot springs, the lights if they're out tonight. And...

And here came one more video of another, much larger whale, breaching and soaking everybody on the boat quite thoroughly.

Wildlife.

Kanan was so soaked.
