I Stay At The Blue Lagoon In Iceland - The Volcano ERUPTS!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ก.ย. 2024
- I Spend one night at the Silica Hotel, which is just 5 mins from the blue lagoon on foot
I check out the hotel, Geothermal pool and the Big Blue Lagoon!
However it ends in disaster as 5.30am earthquakes happened and just before 6am the alarm sounds to warn of an eruption, no one knew where it would come up but it was very close to the hotel!

This is one hotel stay I WON'T EVER FORGET!
😂😂👍
That was a really good video. How you kept it together to shoot it is pretty amazing
Or go back too 🤣
Don't forget to go stay at East Quay down in watchet Somerset
It's beautiful and quirky 🤪
I bet the Hotel didn't forget to bill you either. :)
Hotel Room = lots of money
Lagoon resort = lots of money
Dinner = lots of money
Massage = lots of money
Drinks = lots of money
Minimal packaged lunch = lots of money
6:00am wake-up call by a volcano = priceless
To sleep in hotel above active magma chamber = ? 😁
Well the room looks very comfortable.
You have to put your clothes in your bag before you go to bed,so you can just put on your shoes & jacket & go go to, if the alarm goes off!
Brilliant
Minibar is complimentary
Love how this guy is not a dramaqueen like most people today.
Vulcano erupts, drives away, little filming, time to fill up, vulcano erupting in the background, 'filling up your car is a bit different on iceland.'
Lucky they were not in EVs waiting around to chargee while the lava and ash rained down.
Agree, excellent video.
He knew it was coming, that is why he went there. Then, acts surprised that it happened. It was all scripted.
Nobody knew when. He is genuine guy
If this was an American TH-camr it would have been very different.
Hotel stay: expensive, experiencing this: priceless. Best footage I've seen from this eruption so far.
Jepp... The lava curtain was quite impressive!
I just found the British resort documentarian
as someone who was watching the erruption on the livecams on youtube, yeah he's some amazing footage.
Great video. Very well choreographed.
I have driven people quite often to and from the Silica Hotel but never stayed there, so very interesting for me to see inside.
I love seeing your honest opinions.
I´m one of the locals that have been agains them being allowed to operate in the area while there is a very high chance of imminent eruption.
I mean the area was marked inside a orange danger zone, and they are having business opened for tourist.
I have been waiting for it to erupt any minute in the last 3 weeks.
Though the eruption was where they estimated, they can never be 100% sure.
I mean the magma chamber is underneath the Blue Lagoon area at around 5 km / 3 miles dept.
The road you are driving at around 21:43 is all under lava now. It went over the road about 6 hours after you left.
The lava went as close to the the front door of the hotel as about roughly 600 meters or about 0.38 miles.
The Berm Wall was between, but still.
The lava did not hit the berm wall but was very close to it.
I doubt that anybody told you this. But in the last 3 months, or since novemer 10th when all the earthquakes happend. The land in Svartsengi, where the powerplant is, sunk by about 35 cm / 14 inches and since then it has it has risen again from that point about 55 cm / 22 inches (It sunk a little bit after each eruption).
So there have been a lot of movement in the land there.
Also, the land around the town of Grindavík (The town that have been evacuated) few km south from there. There is a point West and East of the town, and those point have been spliting apart about 3 meters / 10 feet now since november. I dont yet have numbers since this eruption.
I’d been watching the daily reports and the web cameras since this started in November. There’s been discussion all along that the Blue Lagoon had been taking chances. They were let’s say less than intelligent to have stayed open when this last eruption was imminent (I watched the road get overcome with lava quickly two hours after you drove off; it was stunning how fast that lava moved - totally different than the lava in the earlier eruptions). And I think that those people who stayed there at that time were equally less than intelligent. Yeah, you got great film, but if the fissure pattern had been a bit different, you would have had no way out of that area - the road would have been gone. This is a Darwin Award level video (and by the way, I’ve been there; I hiked up to the first eruption in June 2021, so I’m not armchair quarterbacking this).
yes its a scary thought it could have and could still come up under the blue lagoon
Currently, there is no opening leading from the magma reservoir 7Km below the surface leading straight upwards towards the blue lagoon. The only way for the magma to move currently is to the east into the dike where eruptions have been occurring. If the magma wanted to shoot straight up, it would need to break kilometers of solid rock. This could happen but it would take days and many strong earthquakes. So, the blue lagoon is much safer than you think.
I wouldn't bet money, let alone my safety, that they are being honest about the fissures and openings PRE Dec 23- let alone the dramatic new ones post.
Darwin award indeed to believe they have no ulterior motives to downplay dangers, especially after the absurd level of denials from govt and "authorities on volcanoes in Iceland", then go into the zones.
Downright Machiavellian at this point to tell OTHERS it is safe to go.
@@dr.marykelleher4904Genuine question. How is hiking to an eruption okay, but staying in a hotel where an eruption may be imminent is not?
I'm not a swinger... "but you can have a few people standing around watching if you want" with a cheeky pause!
A once in a lifetime experience!! Amazing footage. Nobody gets that but scientists! You'll NEVER forget that!
sadly not as the peninsular has woken up and these eruptions have been frequently erupting every 3 weeks this one was the second eruption from the same spot as the first one just with more lava coming out. they dont know if this type of event will last months, years decades or hundreads of years and the last time the peninsular erupted was 800 years ago and it was a long episode of many eruptions some big, some small.
scientists and Icelanders
Eruption been going on for 200 million years
What a unique vacation!
"Nobody has that but scientists."
And just about every person that lives in that area.
Annoying
I'm pleased you're safe and at the same time extremely jealous that you've seen in person something as amazing as that.
And the fact I was last 1 out .. no one was around
Me too ! Exceptional video, Tim does it so well, i think he's getting better and better. 🔥💧
@WalkWithMeTim That's scary!
Disappointed that water in minifridge is sparkling. Not realizing the best still water ever is right in the bathroom tap 😂
Thanks for the video, always wanted to see one of the rooms! Glad your safe!
Lol good point.
And there obviously (in the video) was free fresh water next to the door to the hotel pool (from the inside of the hotel out to the hotel pool that was next to that door).
Maybe on some other places too.
I don't know about Iceland, but in Denmark it is mostly basic water in the ground being pumped up, given air and then pumped into the pipes! Finn. Denmark
mountain water is better then tap water and that really helps clean ur body inside = thats what i have found with me and my plants (they really enjoy it)
@@kananaskiscountry8191 Base water, in our case with a high contend of Chalk in some areas, is fine for a bath! I have visited Norway, which has water which is extremely "soft", and you are hardly able to wash out soap from your hair!!!
But the quality of most Danish Tap Water is better than most water bought in bottles or cans! And a naturel contend of Fluor in the water gives very fine teeth! I, as 76, has near all of my teeth present in my mouth still! But I admit that for plants it isn't optimal! Finn
Man: "I am at a safe distance"
Volcano: "Lol!"
I don’t why I laughed out loud at the thought of volcano speaking internet language 😂
You know what makes your channel tick? I reckon it’s because you and Gabby are real and relatable folks. Keep up and thank you for the authenticity. Hard to come by these days. Looking foward to more content. Cheerio🙏🏼❤️
Thank you so much!!
Tim - I am old so I don’t do drama and that is why I love you, Gabby and Casper. You give a real tour of the rooms and the real experience without flourishes. Thank you❤️
Here here 👍💯
As a follow up - the Blue Lagoon and hotels are now basically cut off for the general public as the lava flowed over the main road and up the blue lagoon road. There is another way in from the south but that is from the town of Grindavik which is closed.
And the lava also melted the pipe that supplies hot water to the rest of the towns on the peninsula, including Keflavik. As Iceland uses this hot water supply for heating people are having to use very limited electric heating (and no hot water for washing) until the new pipe is in place…
yes I know .. scary it went across the road I travelled out on I hope they sort but will no doubt be a while before it opens up again
I’m back in Iceland in August (and December!) , not planning on visiting the Blue Lagoon but we usually go to Grindavík for soup, which is much nicer than your dinner looked and about a fifth of the price!! But I’m not hopeful that it will be possible….
Wow scary 😨 you got away ok 👍 😊
probably not going to Grindavík. The government is going to buy the owners out of their houses. It's not looking good for people being able to live there
@@WalkWithMeTim it's very costly ,and it's cut off the hot water.
You are so fortunate to have experienced this and videoraphed it! They got you away safely, that is paramount.
Yes! I'm a bit jealous ...
01:32
That's because it basically has. The Blue Lagoon is build at the edge of a historical lava flow from the 13th century. So they build around the piece like that, giving the appearence you just described.
The reykjanes peninsular has a 700 year activity cycle too so these eruptions could go on as long as for another 200 years. Iceland fascinates me so much. Its beautiful.
@@janereeves4482 They will appear sporadic throughout the next 150 to 300 years at different parts of the peninsula.
@@Vulcano7965 well I'm hoping to get back there in the next year so fingers crossed I pick the right time.
That was incredible! I was stationed at the NATO base, Keflavik, Iceland 2003, 2005. I use to go to Blue Lagoon once a week, just the Lagoon. It was more affordable back then. Great experience, expensive but you will never forget it. I was stationed at Subic Naval Base, Philippines went MT Pinitubo blew for 3 days. That was a big eruption! Totally destroyed Clark Air Base. We evacuated 25,000 people! Great Vllogg!
Blue lagoon when is hot pot close to bridge:)))
What an experience!
For anyone who wants to go to Iceland and is worried about missing the blue lagoon there are a lot of other geothermal pools. We went to Lake Myvatin and I highly recommend it. Also if you want to eat on a budget, eat the soups, they are very hearty and usually best value for money.
though Mývatn is a 6 hr drive from keflavík, so prepare for a long drive
Thank you so much for your comment I'd like to visit Iceland but on a budget I will revisit this once I have the funds
The place you stayed at managed to turn a spa into a cafeteria experience . Lining up for your drink. Lining up to get a face mask slapped on your palm so you can put it on your own face ...
Wow, those air raid sirens ... Very exciting and terrifying too. Now that was an adventur
What an experience! Not one to forget in a hurry. Just booked to go to Iceland last week, fingers crossed for summer! Better footage than all the news coverage!
WOW. That volcano footage was fantastic you were in the right place at the right time, just wow. Wouldn't stop at that hotel though, far too expensive.
What are the odds of the one night I was there! lol
@@WalkWithMeTim Unbelievable mate.
@@WalkWithMeTimHope you play the lottery! Greetings from Boston! Glad you made it out! 🔥
@@WalkWithMeTim what a privilege to
se the eruption! It disrupted your plans
yet was amazing! I'd be there if I could
@@WalkWithMeTimIn a way I wish I was you. In a way, you and the others weren't in any real danger. Yeah it may have been unnerving or terrifying, but since this was a effusive or lava eruption, it would have taken time for the lava to reach you.
That feature in the hallways, with the volcanic rock formation halfway through the windows is both an awesome architectural work of art, and a rather unfortunate portent of what was about to happen. I'm just glad you're okay Tim!
Loved this video. What a place and I actually teared up a bit at the volcano erupting..weird! Really stunning, beautiful, exciting, highly dangerous and the awesomeness that's Mother Nature! That's a once in a lifetime - I bet you're glad you experienced it!
""I stay in a hotel with the most amazing wake up call EVER !! ""
Thanks Tim. I have been glued to the Live From Iceland channel since the first eruption in November 2023 and it was interesting to view the eruption ‘experience’ from a visitors perspective. Nice vid and thanks for staying where you did because I could never afford to. 😉
Same🙋🏼♀️
@@Brittoezz Me 2.. 🙋♀
OMG Tim! What a frightening experience being evacuated from a hotel early in the morning because of a volcano eruption!! Not something you would expect on a day to day basis and I bet you will never forget it. It did look absolutely insane!
Just glad you got out of there and are now safe Tim.
Thanks for another brilliant video 😁
Would love to see a follow-up on this if the lava made it to the hotel.
He even says in the start that it was expected though? 😆 It has been all over the news for a while now here in Sweden.
Love the blue lagoon, stayed there 2018.
”Ni still water?” The Tap-water is really good here in the north!
And what is it with shoes inside? 😄
@@CJLinOHIO
It didn't get to the lagoon it only lasted around 24 hours and got far enough to take out the hot water pipeline to Grindevic (spelling?)
Great Video!! I live in Hawaii with a couple active volcanos on the island… glad you are safe. Lava erupting and fountaining is both terrifying and beautiful
Hi Tim glad you got out of the hotel and away safely. What a way to be woken up by the emergency alarm and to drive a hire car right past the volcano erupting throwing out lava. What a scene of lava in the back ground at the airport. The hotel and room looked lovely.
Exceptional vlog thx Tim! Knowing the roads well, surely the scariest part for you was having to drive TOWARDS the eruption before reaching the main road and being able to turn away to the north...only hours later that road was comprehensively engulfed by lava flow. Wow.
Yes ! I thought that too !
Possibly the most genuinely terrifying travel vlog I’ve ever seen. Just wow. 🔥 Glad you’re safe . 👍🏼
Thanks , how things in Mallorca
@@WalkWithMeTim pretty laidback here in comparison to your latest video 😜
“Swing with me Tim”
Glad you’re safe and sound. Great review.
I’d swing with him …. Hahahah
Thank you so much for the tour of the Blue Lagoon and your stay with details. The 6 AM wake up was fantastic -if a little unnerving, just a wondrous experience! All smiles!
Go glad you’re safe Tim! Was actually very interesting to see that the hotel was prepared for that! Not something you initially would have thought
This is going to be like watching one of those Disaster movies!
But its not a movie it really happened.
What an unforgettable thing to have been there Tim!
I hope people weren't injured & everyone was evacuated to safety!
I would never want to be around when a air raid goes off you are brave!! So glad you got out of there and home safe !!!
Experienced this in Hawwaii and then phones go off and a message ICBM missile incoming this is not a drill...great fun.
Also hiked out to the lave flowing into the ocean on the Big Island a few years ago. Incredible heat even from the "cooled down" lava rock. We stayed a safe distance away from the flow.
Great review as always Tim.....not sure if its just me but what an utterly bizarre place!!!
Awesome footage of the eruption though and crazy that it happened on the exact night/morning you stayed there.
I wouldn’t call that stay a disaster Tim. You likely won’t ever experience anything like that again. Most volcanic eruptions in Iceland aren’t particularly explosive so you were fine and not really in any immediate danger. The reason these fissure eruptions happen so much in Iceland is because the country is tearing itself in half and being filled in with magma, so Iceland is getting bigger and bigger. You can see where it is splitting on satellite maps if you look closely. I believe the splitting rate is about 2cm a year. 🙂
Wow what an incredible experience! The blue lagoon, volcano, your saw it all! Brilliant video!
wow!
Iceland is my special place, I absolutely love it there.
What footage you have! 🌋
Oh my goodness, another top video, thank you Tim. To be there when the volcano went off must have been scary - but what a once in a lifetime experience!!
Not in Iceland that’s a twice a month experience at this point !! ❤
@@hulda4ever In the area this has happened in the last 2 years 5 to 6 times and it had to happen for over 800 years
@@antonio39776 I know everything about it. I live here
Epic video! What an experience and wake up call! Always good honest information on your channel😊
What a well stitched together video . Certainly went into depth of what the Blue Lagoon is all about .
I been watching the Iceland eruptions since Fagradalsfjall in 2021 , so watching Eruptions is not new to me .
But omg you sure has a bit of a shock .
Everyone has their eyes on on your digital dash clock lol .
And you got so good footage of the 3rd eruption very shortly after it first fissured .
Not long after that a Giant Lava Spaghetti monster wound it's way and destroyed some valuable hot water pipelines .
.
The prices omg !
Design yes and comfort .
But many have been questioning the Decision making by the Managers and above of the Blue Lagoon .
Clearly putting Profit before the safety of people .
An excellent video 👏 👏
That was a spectacular end to your trip. You could never plan for it. It looks so safe but unsafe. Amazing.
Hope you are now in a place of safety, Tim. Safe travels home.
thanks
The fact that we get free travel videos from Tim on TH-cam is priceless.., keeping the knowledge and entertainment alive. 🤷
That was a brilliant video, you are a natural presenter and I love your sense of humour. Glad you got out ok after your early morning scare!
Hi Tim! I seen a reference to this video on another channel. It was featured on "On The Pulse With Silki". She has been covering the volcanic activity at Iceland. The best thing is, I discovered your channel! 😁 Your video was Amazing and Scary too. 😮 But, since then, I have watched a LOT of your videos and have Subscribed. Love your travels and videos. Glad you got out of Iceland safe!!! I am on my cell phone commenting but watching you on TH-cam on TV touring Lapland! Love your channel. Cute family also. Take Care. Thanks for the videos.
😁 💞
thanks .. welcome to the channel
Absolutely beautiful place especially blue lagoon. Absolute terrific experience of the volcanic activity. Glad you got out safely
WOW, What a wake up call. Not every day you get woken up by a volcanic eruption near your hotel. Hotel looks very nice but certainly very expensive. And now the access road to the hotel is covered in Lava too 😪 Great video as always 😃
😮 I stayed in Iceland 🇮🇸 last February 2023 and we loved our visit to the Blue Lagoon 👌
Can't wait go back there as that place is amazing, fingers crossed the lava doesn't break it's way through, Thanks for doing this video Tim 👌
To actually see the eruption accor must have been breath taking to see but nerve-racking at the same time.
So calm and absolutely amazing close up footage! Good for you and glad your safe!
My fiancé took me to Iceland for my birthday and the blue lagoon was stunning. Must have been so scary with that volcanic activity.
Only if you’ve been to Iceland can you appreciate the geothermal nature. It’s just such a breathtaking place and atmosphere.
This was an incredible video. I loved your honest hotel review as you were trying the various services and facilities, but the way you reacted so relatively calmly from the eruption onward, that was quite cool as well.
What an amazing experience, blue lagoon added to my bucket list! the volcanic eruption whilst terrifying to see it so close to your hotel room, its a once in a lifetime experience to see. The air raid alarm though would have scared the hell out of me at 6am in the morn. Fantastic vid
It scared the .. out of me
I was there with a friend at the end of last month. So lucky to have avoided this, we were told if the volcano went off they’d evacuate us all 😬 glad you’re okay, Tim. Love your videos 😊
Absolute belter episode! It’s gone straight into my top 3 Walk With Me Tim episodes!
What are the other two of ur top three pls ? I’ve just discovered this channel. Would love see what you particularly enjoyed 🙂
what an experience with the siren after 6am, in pitch black morning. amazing video, i was breath-holding when you had the vulcano lava running after you in the side mirror of your car. well done for that. thank you
Had this video recommended to me a bit over a week ago and have been watching all your videos since. Super entertaining and great filming work, really enjoy the videos, thanks Tim!
Awesome, thank you!
My sons (5 and 2) are joining me for this! Its so exciting. Thank you, Tim!!
Now we're going to rewatch some Walk with me favourites 😆 love Fridays!
thanks Sophie
This is one review ILL NEVER FORGET especially when you see lava right near the airport from waiting lounge
yes was so crazy
.....what an experience. Truly amazing to think your hotel was that close.
Epic video😲🌋
That's been great fun to watch! I enjoyed the Blue Lagoon's waters a few years back, but even though it's a fantastic memory, it wasn't quite that intense! Lucky you!
Everything about Iceland is so stylish. We were amazed as we drove around the whole island that pretty much everywhere we stayed or ate was fitted out in what I'd call quiet luxury.. All of these creature comforts juxtaposed with the grandeur and dangers of the land itself. It was such an adventure. Loved every minute of our trip.
That was a crazy experience for sure! Look how the lava oozed and showcased a very bright and angry red color! That's scary! 😱😱
Amazing! I am following the Iceland-situation for the last few month out of Switzerland. And you being there exactly during the third eruption is just unreal. Thanks for covering it.
I am planning on visiting Iceland so this was great to see. I am enjoying your videos, this was exceptionally well done. Glad you're safe, looking forward to more adventures.
I enjoyed your your perspective about your stay at the hotel and visit to Blue Lagoon. I knew of course that you would probably awaken to the eruption already under way and you handled well without stressing. It would interesting to see whete else you visit. From New Mexico, USA wishing you well.
I lived in Iceland for about 2 years and it was the most breathtaking place I have ever lived. We even had a view of Blue Lagoon. However, I never experienced the volcanoes erupting. I did walk across a dominant (at the time) volcano on a school field trip. The view of the eruption was magnificent. I'm sorry your trip was cut short.
And just a few hours after you drove away from the Blue Lagoon the road you used was covered by the lava flow! Resort itself was spared (at least for now).
I know I was on the iceland national news lol
If you book yourself into the Volcano House Hotel at Kilauea volcano on Hawaii soon you might get lucky and get a sequel@@WalkWithMeTim 🌋😀
@@WalkWithMeTim Oh I wish we could see that! All your subscribers would feel like insiders, like: "Oh we know Tim", ha!
I'm so jealous... when I was in Iceland I hoped to see what you experienced. Grindavik is beautiful. Glad you're safe. I'm pretty sure this'll go viral!
Wow how frightening that must have been. 😱 Glad you were in the hotel safe and sound.
I stayed in Reykjavik 2 times. Hotel Esja was nice and not expensive. The hot thermal pool was not far to walk. Nothing priced like this.
@@markblix6880 I just looked it up and let’s be honest that hotel you’ve mentioned is nothing close to what Tim stayed in, so the price difference makes much sense.
I love Iceland! It’s absolutely a lovely place. I was fortunate enough to be there when a volcano was erupting in the summer of 2021. I can’t wait to go back… for the sixth time. 😊
I'm glad you're safe, Tim!😊👍👏👏❤️
Yes, thank you
Praise the lord! @@WalkWithMeTim
Wow- what an experience you had in Iceland . The eruption looks amazing but I am pleased you made it out in one piece. I do think it’s very overpriced but also Iceland is known for being very expensive. Great video Tim.👍
This video has to go viral Tim wow hope your home relaxing after all that stress
I flew the day of the eruption and could see the lava when I flew in. Booked a day at the lagoon that was sadly canceled and failed to see the Northern Lights. Iceland absolutely beautiful and will be back again
Wow im so glad I found your channel, i cant wait to check out your playlist, this is awesome thank you. Yes i think the blue lagoon was a little too plain for me also, but the lagoon amenities itself seems incredible. Thanks for all the great info! ❤ New subscriber here for sure! ❤
This has to be the best vlog on TH-cam ever ~ talk about a dramatic ending!!! I visited Iceland (from Canada 🇨🇦) & The Blue Lagoon more than a decade ago. (not the resort, I stayed with family❤️) We spent several hours there & it was truly Heaven on Earth! Thanks Tim!
Wow, thank you!
Tim you had me in stitches when you said about the shower. Comedy Gold Tim!! Love your sense of humour, don’t ever change.
“You can have a few people standing around watching if you want” then your expression after you said it 😂😂😂
Wow Tim, that was one amazing vlog. On one hand, loved the Blue Lagoon, hotel, views and geology, filmed to your usual amazing standard, but the volcano, oh my word. You were so calm and did brilliantly in the get away hire car. 😂. Loved it, but so glad you have returned safely to your lovely family. Fantastic Tim, well done. 😊 xx
Believe me I was scared but understand I was not in immediate danger.. but it was very close to the hotel
Blue Lagoon is a major source of income. Wonder
how much stress the employees were under?
Water, electricity and heat for 30,000 in the region
were impacted by the lava, not to mention sinkholes in Grindavik.
WOW! That is something you don't experience everyday let alone EVER for most of us. Curious to know if any of that area was damaged in any way. Such a beautiful resort but darn expensive. Thank you for sharing this spectacular experience. When I heard the siren, my blood pressure when up a notch. That had to be scary. Beautiful footage of that massive firewall. WOW, just WOW!
Blooming heck Tim! What an experience 😮
Wow! As dangerous as that was it looks quite cool. Glad your all ok though.
Wow... just Wow! That must have been the most surreal experience! 😮
I wont soon forget it
Absolutely amazing. Thank you Tim for bringing us along.
You definitely know how to make them interesting Tim. How do you do it 😆👍
lol
That was just amazing. We love your show. Thank you once again.
You are famous now. Top commentator on iceland situation referring people to your video
Holy smokes!!!! That's a rude awakening but so fascinating at the same time. Glad you were safe and they have a good procedure for their guests.
Watching from Lagos Nigeria enjoy your channel. And this episode,,,🤯. I like the hotel room it will be easy to keep clean
Such a stunning place! I would love to go in the blue lagoon but think I'd be too scared! The alarm at 6am must have been terrifyingly but what an experience and thing to capture on camera. Glad you're safe
it was Liz , freaked me out I won't soon forget
Lava from this eruption has actually flowed over the main road leading to the Blue Lagoon, so it's not likely to be open again any time soon!
A very good tip if you go to Iceland and you have a bit of time (and a car), don't go to the blue lagoon. You can drive all the way to Mývatn in the North where you'll find some installation as big as the Blue lagoon, for half the price and half the tourists. There is no accommodation on site, but you got hotels nearby.
Good info ! 👍
Volcano said hold my beer i understand this assignment😂😂😂
I wouldn't necessarily say that it ended in "disaster" you had a unique experience. You weren't in danger. You were leaving that day anyway. And you had the rare opportunity to watch from a safe distance mother earth fury. I tell you what disaster is. Waking up to a fissure spewing fast moving lava less than 50 yards from where you were vacationing. Then hoping on a car not knowing if the exit route was already cut off. That was Hawaii, 2018, near the town of Pahoa.
Imagining myself as Tim calling Gabby from the airport ...."You'll never guess what just happened" adding in some hot puns. Kidding aside, the place looked stunning and glad you are safe my friend, always enjoy your videos. All my love to you and your beautiful fam!
All that foreshadowing 30 seconds in... 😱
Volcanic activity aside, that looks like an incredible stay!
1:28 Talk about foreshadowing! I'm glad you're okay. Hopefully, the residents and their homes are, too. 🙏
The volcanic eruption is the craziest thing! Wow what an experience most likely once in a lifetime!
Wow! So amazing to see this from this point of view, I hope you had a good stay in the lagoon. Best wishes from lagoon staff member🫶🏼
Surpised the title wasn't 'I stayed in a hotel near a volcano - I was SHOCKED!!!'
16:50 "I might be able to see the northern lights tonight" - Famous last words Tim!
