1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #528 - Geyser Strokkur, Iceland

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #528

- Geyser Strokkur, Iceland 
 
(We have arrived at the mother of all geysers, the place where the name "geyser" came from here in Iceland. And this Strokkur Geyser at the geothermal area along the Golden Circle here spouts hot spring up to 40m high every 5-10 minutes or so. The 1st one took me totally by surprise, clearing 20m easily from the ground - see video below. It is quite a spectacle, seeing it for the first time. And look at those Icelandic horses, at a farm not too far from Strokkur. They have a lot more hair than the usual horses, to keep warm)
