Focus on Iceland
Iceland is a European island about the size of Kentucky, located midway between North America and continental Europe. It's sparsely populated and most Icelanders live in coastal regions. However, the uninhabited highland interior is one of Europe's most spectacular wilderness areas. The name Iceland is deceiving because the Gulf Stream results in a surprisingly mild climate. With exciting activities all seasons, Iceland is a unique vacation destination.
