Pipe-Dreams

Tweet

A pipe-dream is defined as "an unattainable or fanciful hope or scheme." During the lockdown months, my hubby and I have resorted to doing a lot of virtual travel and watching many travel blogs and videos sent by friends across the globe. We even do the morning VENICE watch, which my hubby finds most fascinating as the water taxi's fetch and carry everyone now that some of the restrictions have been lifted in Italy. This link comes live to us from a weather app link - I know we may not promote other links, but if you google it with the right questions I am sure you will find it. In doing all this virtual travel, we have come upon some waterfalls in ICELAND. Google says "There are around 10,000 plus waterfalls in Iceland, and they are as varied and beautiful as they are many. Iceland's climate and the location is especially suited to waterfalls with frequent rain and snow, combined with the multitude of glaciers that melt in summer." Now for someone who has gone from Lighthouse Chasing to Walking Waterfalls, this would be a place I would like to see - God willing. There are fourteen exceptional waterfalls in Iceland, and if possible I would like to see a few of them especially Brúarfoss. Did you know The Most Beautiful Waterfalls in the World are rated as follows: "1. Victoria Falls, Zambia and Zimbabwe. 2. Iguazu Falls, Argentina and Brazil. 3. Angel Falls, Venezuela. 4. Niagara Falls, New York and Ontario. 5. Yosemite Falls, California, USA. 6. Plitvice Falls, Croatia. 7. Kaieteur Falls, Guyana. 8. Gullfoss Falls, Iceland. " Have you been to any? I would love to hear your story if you have visited any of the waterfalls mentioned, in the meantime, Brúarfoss, Iceland - you are my pipe-dream! I give you my photo of climbing the Highest waterfall in the Southern Hemisphere - Sentinal Peak - The Tugela Waterfall in the Drakensberg Mountains - Yes I climbed to the top!
