The various birds in the pond near city hall are beautiful, but don't feed them. They can be rather aggressive, and some are quite tall!
Oldest parliament—Althingi. #travelbug #althingi #kef #iceland
Great place to sit and relax by the water. Just be careful, some of the birds get aggressive for food!
