As we come closer to leaving for Reykjavik I was getting more and more nervous about arriving there around 6am and not being able to get into our AirBnB until 3pm. I tried to find things to do in the early morning but almost nothing is open until 9-10am other than coffee shops and I really did not want to be sitting in a coffee shop for 4 hours after an overnight flight.
AirBnB sent me a generic confirmation email about "Your stay is coming up soon!" and I saw our host had a flexible cancellation policy and it suddenly dawned on me that oh wow I could cancel this and stay somewhere else where we could check in at 6am! I had seriously never even considered that before. (If I didn't mention it someone had reserved our AirBnB for the night before so we couldn't check in earlier and when I made the reservation I just never thought about how we should reserve it for Friday night too).
I messaged our host and told him what I was doing and he was very understanding and nice and then I found an Apartment House on booking.com that looks perfect. It seems like there are a lot of these apartment houses in Reykjavik that seem more like condos than hotels?
So now the plan is to check in around 6am and get some sleep THEN get some breakfast and check out some museums or something.
We are putting the finishing touches on our India itinerary for next summer! I am beyond excited- did I mention that yet? We're up to 17 or 18 nights there (not including flying) and we're basically just staying in Rajasthan with a few nights in Varanasi tacked on to the end. I will never understand people that try to see a whole country (or more than 1 country!) in like 10 days or less.
