Last full day in Iceland!!!

We woke up at 8:00am for our delicious breakfast at 9:00am. We then got ready to go to the Northern Lights experience. We went on an Icelandic bus into the center of Reykjavik then walked along the harbour to the experience. At the experience we learnt a lot more about the Northern Lights. We found out how and why they develop. There were also some activities to try. These included: Making your own Northern Lights, using a projector and coloured sheets, we also learnt how to take a good picture of the northern lights. In the gift shop lots of our group bought souvenirs. We then walked along the harbour and went in the gift shop. There many of us bought ginger chocolate. We then made our way back to the hostel where we had a packed lunch.
After lunch we had free time and got ready to go to the swimming pool.  The pool was so warm - it was 32°c. There was a water slide we all started going by ones and twos and then we went down in a big chain (about 15 of us went down all at once.) It was so fun!!! When we got out - it was so cold - and we walked back to the hostel but it was only down the road. At the end the night we had really nice pizzas. Harley, Ruby, Lucy, Amy, Maddy and Sophie PS had a Northern lights party and we were given sweets. Lucy slept in our room and we stayed up until 3:30am. Tomorrow we are going to the Blue Lagoon!!!
