Nice to see you guys so excited about Icelandair's business class. Just wait 'till you fly a true international business class with lie-flat seats...you'll be in heaven! Icelandair's business class is more akin to domestic first class in the U.S. You basically get a wider seat with more legroom and better food. Always better than coach!
Yes, we can't wait to be in "real" business class seats. We actually had them booked on Cathay Pacific for a trip to Hong Kong... but our travel dates were for March. And you can guess what happened to them :( Thanks so much for watching!
We've never made it to Iceland before, it is definitely on our bucket list though once things start to open up again! We definitely look back fondly on our few business class trips though, thanks to Steve and his credit card points! Hopefully we can try out Saga Class ourselves sometimes soon, big comfy recliner chairs, prosecco and good food seems like the ultimate way to get to Iceland.
Credit card points make those business class flights doable. Such a gift. Actually the Icelandair tickets were around $1300 each which seemed like an amazing deal to us. They make the flights to Iceland reasonable and then everything else about Iceland is mind bogglingly expensive. But what a beautiful country!
Absolutely love Iceland...my boyfriend treated me to a business class flight and I loved the experience. I ordered an Iceland Gin but didn't drink it and then ended up finding it in my handbag weeks later! Bonus!! :-)
How fun that was. You Ryans had me chuckling. Bobby's facial expressions! Priceless. And I wonder...slipping out of your seat had nothing to do with the gin/tonic flights you sampled. lol Thank you for the very informative info. xo
I just watched your video and enjoyed it immensely! We are leaving March 16th to go to Dublin via Iceland and will be flying Saga Class as well, I can't wait! You guys are great, I especially loved all of those gin drinks!!!
Yay Denise we're so excited for you guys! It's so cool that Icelandair has the option for a layover. Be sure to leave time to hang out in the Saga lounge in Reykjavik. It's one of the coolest lounges ever. Happy travels!
That sounds amazing! Progressively getting warmer the farther you travel. Sounds like a good plan 😀 We're in the travel spirit as well right now--we're in Thailand for the month of February!
But like how FANCY was that plane tho lol loved it. Hot towels for your face and those meals tho! And some drinks tho! Like that's the best flight lol Tiramisu is my freaking favorite. This was a cool video loved it. You guys seem like so much fun.
Iceland!!! Wow!! What an exciting journey! The flight was first class. Fantastic food options on the flight and I love the stickers that they have for being woken up to eat. Their goodie bags are so nice!! Can't wait to see more of your trip- the lava field is very unique.
We have an upcoming one-way EWR-KEF flight. Any one thing from the menu you recommend? Thanks for the great video. We are so looking forward to our trip!
I have flown Saga Class many year ago, so it was a bit different but equally wonderful! The "kit" I was given, extra comfortable space and the food and unlimited beverages were epic! I'm glad you both had a great time there. It's my #1 place on earth. I've been there 5 times and I will be returning again and again.
Woah Steve, that's amazing that you've been there 5 times! We can totally see why you'd be drawn to return again and again. Our equivalent would be Thailand. We feel so at home there with the food, the people and the climate
I am so jealous your going to Iceland!!! I can’t wait to see your next video. I am so excited for you guys. So happy we connected. Have a safe fun trip!!!
Thanks Kathy! This was actually from earlier this year... but we're reliving our Iceland adventures as we edit the footage. We're glad to be connected too!
Thanks, you guys did a great job. We will be taking this flight soon in Saga class. Unfortunately we couldn't get this class of service on our return flight so we aren't looking forward to that segment. But, we will be able to make a comparison. I last flew on this airline in 1968 on my way to Europe from NYC as a graduate student. I think the plane was a propeller prop back then and we needed to refuel in Reykjavik before continuing on to Luxembourg. The cost of the return ticket was less than $100!
Michael, this is such a great "full circle" story. Argh, sorry to hear that the saga class is full on your return trip. Sometimes seats open up though! Keep checking on your app. When I fly economy, I tell myself that I can feel free to order whatever drinks or food I want because I'm still saving so much money 😆 So live it up in whatever seats you end up in. Hope your travels are great!
I feel like i'm drunk after watching and hungry at the same time 😆 7:02 that face hahaha 9:17 and again lol 10:05 now im starving! 👍 good job you two. No, i haven't tried flying with the Icelandair Saga Class nor flying to Iceland. When i read the title my thoughts was "oh jaja ding dong" lol from the movie "Euro Vision Fire Saga".
ohh iceland amazing place..i hope i can also visit that placr too..and i like the business class hmmmp what a nice experience dude..thank you for sharing
Thanks for the video, guys. We are flying the same flight from Seattle to Reykjavik next month and doing the 2 week ring tour. Wondering how their noise canceling headphones were? I just got myself a new pair of Bose noise canceling headphones. If theirs are decent, it would be one less thing to lug for our two week adventure! Cheers!
Tony this sounds like an amazing adventure! Two weeks to explore the ring road! Hmmm... it's been three years since that flight and I have no recollection of the headphone quality. I can hardly remember what I ate for lunch 😆 I wish I could offer more help. But we both send great big wishes for a fabulous journey (with or without your new bose headphones)
It's really amazing to see that you experienced the business class. As I watch you eating, I feel so hungry!!😋😋😋 All food looks delicious!! Thumbs up and definitely joining your growing family.✨🥂
Dear The Ryans Travel ! Congratulations, super travel video! Nice colors, good contrast, i like your channel! Go the like and I subscribed to your channel !
Very nice video..I loved how you shared your excitement of flying business class the first time. I enjoyed Saga Class last year on a trip FRA-KEV..and in particular the gin selection.I do hope that one day you will be able to experiencethe worlds best business class, i.e. the QSuites on Qatar Airways:)
Oooh, we definitely aspire to flying in those seats. The tricky part about flying in first class is that we never want to fly economy again. Especially when there's a gin library to savor. We look forward to checking out your flight vids as well!
I love the way you have reviewed Icelandic air. I was in Iceland last year this time. Hope to see more similar videos in the future. Your 600th subscriber.
So excited for you to fly on Iceland Air! We hope the flight is smooth and fun. Maybe this flight will set in motion a new level of enjoyment for you on an airplane. Happy travels!
Haha I've never had a business class seat but this video makes me want to pay a little extra 😉 I can't believe they have those stickers! Last time we flew with RyanAir they kept waking us up over lottery tickets and perfume sales 😂
Well, I guess if they're gonna sell me WINNING lottery tickets I'd be okay with it... Otherwise, let me sleep 😂 Icelandair has some of the best priced business class tickets (partly because it's not truly biz class without lay down seats).
Bobby made me giggle outloud seeing his happy face drinking his gin and tonic. The food looks delicious on the plane and they really have a nice touch making your flight more comfortable. That's really good to know. I love all your advice. Thank you!
Bobby doesn't drink very often, but when he does it often brings out a big smile. We loved our flight to Iceland! Maybe one day you'll get to experience it too!
SAGA CLASS!! Love it! Thanks for sharing you guys! We love flying business whenever we can. Did you guys get a deal on the flight? When did you guys go? Never been in the cockpit! How was it!?!? Also, POPCORN! Hahahahahahah. Also forced cocktails are always the best! Make friends with your flight attendant
We were on that flight in January. It was an incredibly good price. I wish I could remember off the top of my head, but I can't. But WAAAYYY less than most business class flights. Do you guys have a favorite business class airline?
@@theryanstravel1699 Well we haven't flown a lot of business flight, but we have enjoyed some. We loved Japan Airline's Business Class and we really enjoyed Mint Business Class with Jet Blue! We made a video about it :)
@@exploreaswego those are two stellar business class airlines. They are both at the top of our list (along with a few others) to experience. We'll have to watch your videos on them!
Hey guys! nice video...we are flying Icelandair from Frankfurt to Reykjavik and from there back to Seattle, with a 5 hour layover in Iceland. Watched your tour of the lounge (THANKS!)..how long was your layover? Any lessons learned...my other questions here are about your flight experience: It looks like you are on the starboard side bulkhead? Row two I think on this aircraft? Was there storage in front of your feet? I thought I saw some open space under the bulkhead? Would you recommend that seat? Second: Just how far does that seat recline? Is it more than a couple inches like standard economy? Thanks in advance!
Such great questions!! First of all, sorry for not responding sooner. As you could probably tell from our lounge video, we loved the Reykjavik lounge. I think it might still be my favorite of the dozen or so we've been in. We didn't have a layover there, we were finishing a week trip to Iceland. We came to the airport early specifically to hang out in the lounge. Come hungry and thirsty. That's our advice 😂
As for the seats... Yes, we were at the bulkhead. And yes there was storage space at our feet in front of us. The seat doesn't recline very far. Maybe 3 or 4 inches more than economy. Certainly nothing like lay flat business class seats. But a big step better than standard economy. We liked these seats because it's nice to not have people in front of us. I think they might also have a bit more legroom because of the bulkhead too.
Virgins in.... almost every way hahaha What an awesome adventure!!!! I would love to go to Iceland! And business class... you guys are rock stars hahaha -Ali 😍🍷
You must be in Iceland now! That's so exciting! And even flying coach must have felt so fun knowing you were about to land in a strange and wonderous new country!
Yes, the northern lights! Bobby saw them really briefly late at night in a moment of clear sky. I was sleeping 😴 Just watched your Disney fireworks show! Wowsers!
Wonderful videos! Now subscribed. I’m bidding on upgrade to Saga Class for an upcoming trip. How much do you think it was worth to you - if you can even measure it that way? Did you arrive noticeably more well rested and happier then a similar length flight in coach? Did it improve your first day in Iceland and lessen jet-lag?
We're so excited to hear you have an Iceland trip coming up! These are great questions Roger. This is Tyler writing to you and I tend to be on the stingy side of spending money. Bobby really pushed for us flying Saga class. In a nutshell, I'm SO glad we did. I feel that our entire travel experience was elevated. The service on the plane felt personal and attentive. The roomy seats meant that we had enough space to avoid feeling claustrophobic. And the lounge in Reykjavik was a fantastic way to finish the trip. It's a fabulous lounge. Neither of us can remember if we slept on the plane. But we both remember that we were jet lagged our entire trip. The timing of the flight meant that we missed a night of sleep. But that had nothing to do with our flight experience. Thanks for subscribing. We hope you have an amazing time. And if you remember, let us know how your flight goes :)
@@theryanstravel1699 Oh my gosh, Tyler - thank you so much for the kindness and detail of your response! It sounds maybe irrational being that we just "met" (I met you yesterday in watching some of your videos) - but I love you both! We'll see if we get the Saga Class upgrade - at this point I followed random advice on the web that basically encouraged me to bid fairly aggressively low (we're about $50 above the minimum bid). Though maybe I should bump it up a bit considering the season - and the experience. It looks like you had a pretty full Saga Class section despite the winter travel date. Your experience both on the plane and the lounge look wonderful! I like what you say about it elevating your experience of the whole trip - even *with* persistent jet lag! Who would guess that a flight/airport experience could do that?! :-) I absolutely must compliment you both on the Reykjavik food video - it was really quite lovely. You two manage to make your videos personal and relatively slowly paced - but so rich with emotional and sensory experience that it feels just right and leaves me with what I need, information-wise. It's rare in youtube. Usually one is lucky to get a detailed and well-edited (but drier) review and the other choice, if more personal, is one that is self-indulgent and boring (at least to those who aren't their immediate family - of course). Somehow you bring us viewers in and enchant us. ...while giving us exactly what we need from a factual standpoint. Best to you both! I'll drop you a line here after our trip!
Roger your observations about our channel made our day. Thank you for sharing these reflections. You named several of the qualities that Bobby works to create as he edits our videos. It means a lot to us! Sooo... tell us about "bidding" on your tickets. Is that through Priceline? This is something we've never done before. Sounds exciting though! I believe Saga Class was full when we rode in January. I wouldn't be surprised if it's full for you too (especially since Iceland seems to be the HOT destination). But we're sending good vibes for scoring a great price on your seats!
@@theryanstravel1699 Tyler it is an option that IcelandAir offered after I bought economy class tickets. They say that on eligible flights (my take: ones where they may not expect to sell all the Saga Class at list price) that they'll send an email within 10 days of the flight. We got the email earlier than that. We had a similar option on Norweigian Air a few years ago (and scored true first class LAX to Rome for $400 above the already reasonable economy class). I've read that this bidding for an upgrade is becoming more popular - slowly spreading from airline to airline - but I don't know how many currently do it. Here's a link to Icelandair's description of their program: www.icelandair.com/support/pre-flight/class-up/
Actually - as I think about it, that's not quite true about Norweigian. We've never experienced true first class - it was probably parallel to Icelandair's Saga Class offering.
My husbund and I might gonna fly on Icelandair via Reykjavik to ya guys aux Étas Unis 🇺🇸 from Zürich either your gorgeous City Seattle,or NYC as a Start and than later to friend of us in San Francisco 🏳️🌈,our dream City,cause Swiss International Airlines are really expensive!!! It is Switzerland🇨🇭🤷,unfortounatly "Icy" does not fly to SFO,which is a pitty,but georgeous Seattle or georgeous compeditor City, Portland Oregon,where I lived for two years '01 till '03 and was an amazing time 🏳️🌈🎉!!! We might First visit an another friend of us in PDX and tha later SFO and our way home à l'Europe Germany,better say,Switzerland Zürich cause is just 1hour 20 away from our town we live on the German Swiss Border Lörrach-Basel 🇪🇺🇩🇪🇫🇷=France is also right on the Border,it is called "Three Country Zone-Area,German- French- Swiss Area",instead Frankfurt am Main,which is almost three hours away from the City where we live.

And all the best 🍀🍀🍀 Greetings from L'Europe Germany,Lörrach 15 min walk to Basel Switzerland 🇨🇭 to the US great Seattle 🇪🇺🇺🇸 Yours, Josha 🙋♂️
What a fabulous note to read from you! It sounds like you have an amazing trip coming up. Seattle, Portland, New York, sfo... all such fun options. We used to live in Portland as well ('07 to '15) and enjoyed it. Get ready for lots of rain if you visit Seattle. We always try to travel in January or February to see some sunshine and get out of the grey weather for awhile. We're in Bangkok at the moment and getting tons of heat and sun. We hope you have an amazing adventure, wherever you end up! Thanks again for the lovely message
Thank you for your detailed and funny review; looks wonderful. My husband and I are planning on flying Icelander to Ireland next Spring!
Lmfaoo 'almost every way' lol got me dying at that part. Still watching
Kids say the darnedest things!
Can’t wait to travel again. I’m gonna watch your channel grow.
Yeah, we're looking forward to traveling again too 💙

Business class is definitely a better way to travel, if there´s a budget for that. I enjoyed watching your video.
Yes--the "budget" detail is the only limiting factor. But sometimes you just gotta do it. I have Bobby to thank for making that happen!
Flying business class is awesome! Am glad the flight attendant was great. Happy weekend to you both. Thumbs up!
Yes, business class is a fabulous treat. No doubt about it. Thanks for watching!
We've never made it to Iceland before, it is definitely on our bucket list though once things start to open up again!

Omg! You guys rock! Thank you for a laugh and good information. I just put in offer to class up to Saga. 🤞🤞🤞
Yes!! Laughing keeps us young 😆 fingers crossed for the seat upgrade. Have a fabulous trip!!
You guys are adorable! Great review! I would LOVE to travel for a living! :-)
Thanks BKF! Do you have any travel plans this year? Any place you're going to satisfy the itch even if you're not making a living from it?
I literally had rainbow-colored unicorns flying out of my data ports while I watched this.
Hahahaha! That's our spirit animal 🤣
You can pull the headrest "wings" outward to keep your head from rolling when sleeping!
Hahaha, yes! Good point!
Absolutely love Iceland...my boyfriend treated me to a business class flight and I loved the experience. I ordered an Iceland Gin but didn't drink it and then ended up finding it in my handbag weeks later! Bonus!! :-)
lol i can't remember the last time i was served a napkin with a napkin ring... let alone ever expecting it on a plane ride
Don't you guys use napkins rings with all your meals??
Hello the Ryans, I love your channel. Look forward to seeing more. :)
Yay! Thanks Sandra 😊
wow! great content, thank you for sharing , love it. big big LIKE.
Thanks Lynn! I'm heading over to your channel now!

It was such a great way to start our trip... but it felt even more luxurious to have it for the way home!
@@theryanstravel1699 you're very fortunate to enjoy such wonderful experiences 😎💜
Omg, had to pause and say, Bobby’s face while sipping his gin was lol worthy!!!
Where do those faces even come from?? I often tell him that his faces remind me of Amy Sedaris. Delightfully odd.
How fun that was. You Ryans had me chuckling. Bobby's facial expressions! Priceless. And I wonder...slipping out of your seat had nothing to do with the gin/tonic flights you sampled. lol Thank you for the very informative info. xo

A very detailed flight review.
I think we should experience some fancy flying at least once in our lifetime lol
Fancy flying is a must. We agree that everyone should have the option to try it. It is just such a fun experience 😊

Meals look delicious, have a nice trip buddies enjoy your flight 🤗🤗🤗
Yes! The food was really good. But we pretty much love all airplane food :)
How exciting, flying business for the first time! We are still business class virgins 😄
One day, when the time is right, you'll leave your virginity behind. But don't let anyone pressure you into it. It's your choice. :0
Looks like a great experience flying business class! We are lucky to find the northern lights when we went! Such a great experience! 👍🏼😊😘😍
Oh, fabulous! So glad you saw the lights. Bobby saw them briefly, in the middle of the night, from our hotel room.
The Ryans Travel yep was really luck! We got a video of that as well in one of our episodes in Iceland ❤️👍🏼😊😘

Yes! Make it happen. At least once :)
Wow Iceland hope I get to see this magical place soon...loved the vlog👍

Did you get access to a lounge in Seattle with Saga class before your flight to Reykjavik?
Yeah, Icelandair has access to a lounge in SeaTac that is only open certain hours (depending on when flights are leaving)
Iceland is so beautifull!
Oops, we never replied to you. Thanks for watching!
Great video. Very interesting to watch...

Thank you very much!
nice experience
So nice
Wow really nice vlog keep it up
Thanks! We just popped over to your channel too 😊
Hey guys! nice video...we are flying Icelandair from Frankfurt to Reykjavik and from there back to Seattle, with a 5 hour layover in Iceland. Watched your tour of the lounge (THANKS!)..how long was your layover? Any lessons learned...my other questions here are about your flight experience: It looks like you are on the starboard side bulkhead? Row two I think on this aircraft? Was there storage in front of your feet? I thought I saw some open space under the bulkhead? Would you recommend that seat? Second: Just how far does that seat recline? Is it more than a couple inches like standard economy? Thanks in advance!
Such great questions!! First of all, sorry for not responding sooner. As you could probably tell from our lounge video, we loved the Reykjavik lounge. I think it might still be my favorite of the dozen or so we've been in. We didn't have a layover there, we were finishing a week trip to Iceland. We came to the airport early specifically to hang out in the lounge. Come hungry and thirsty. That's our advice 😂
As for the seats... Yes, we were at the bulkhead. And yes there was storage space at our feet in front of us. The seat doesn't recline very far. Maybe 3 or 4 inches more than economy. Certainly nothing like lay flat business class seats. But a big step better than standard economy. We liked these seats because it's nice to not have people in front of us. I think they might also have a bit more legroom because of the bulkhead too.
Looked pretty facy 😁 think I'd instinctively put it all in my pockets 🤣
😂😂😂 It's surprising they even let us on the fancy section of the plane!
Looking forward to visit iceland and experience aurora borealis
Yes, it would be amazing to see those beautiful lights in Iceland!
The dream of flying business class... or flying at all for that matter! 😅
:0 Yes! Any flight would be amazing. Actually, flying economy is the way to go right now with all the extra empty seats. Sounds so dreamy!
Virgins in.... almost every way hahaha
What an awesome adventure!!!! I would love to go to Iceland! And business class... you guys are rock stars hahaha -Ali 😍🍷
Maybe you can do a stopover in Iceland on the way to Disney Paris? Might as well dream big!
It looks like the seats don’t fully recline?
Not even close 😢 They recline much further than economy, but nowhere near lay-flat seats of other business classes.
Headed to Iceland next week. but sad to say,,,, COACH 😂
You must be in Iceland now! That's so exciting! And even flying coach must have felt so fun knowing you were about to land in a strange and wonderous new country!
Awesome channel, new friend here
Thanks! We just popped over to your channel too :)
You guys are soooo funny
XOXOXO
we like your channel
Sweet!
Omg I want to go to Iceland 🇮🇸 especially to see the northern lights ❤️❤️❤️ and have you guys seen my new video yet?
Yes, the northern lights! Bobby saw them really briefly late at night in a moment of clear sky. I was sleeping 😴 Just watched your Disney fireworks show! Wowsers!
The Ryans Travel thank you 🙏 😀
New friend here let’s stay connected
💜❤️💕
Thank you
👍
:)
you are funny thanks
wow nice, are you guys still allowed to travel? Keep safe ❤
No, this was shot earlier in January. You stay safe too 💙
Wonderful videos! Now subscribed. I’m bidding on upgrade to Saga Class for an upcoming trip. How much do you think it was worth to you - if you can even measure it that way? Did you arrive noticeably more well rested and happier then a similar length flight in coach? Did it improve your first day in Iceland and lessen jet-lag?
We're so excited to hear you have an Iceland trip coming up! These are great questions Roger. This is Tyler writing to you and I tend to be on the stingy side of spending money. Bobby really pushed for us flying Saga class. In a nutshell, I'm SO glad we did. I feel that our entire travel experience was elevated. The service on the plane felt personal and attentive. The roomy seats meant that we had enough space to avoid feeling claustrophobic. And the lounge in Reykjavik was a fantastic way to finish the trip. It's a fabulous lounge. Neither of us can remember if we slept on the plane. But we both remember that we were jet lagged our entire trip. The timing of the flight meant that we missed a night of sleep. But that had nothing to do with our flight experience. Thanks for subscribing. We hope you have an amazing time. And if you remember, let us know how your flight goes :)
@@theryanstravel1699 Oh my gosh, Tyler - thank you so much for the kindness and detail of your response! It sounds maybe irrational being that we just "met" (I met you yesterday in watching some of your videos) - but I love you both! We'll see if we get the Saga Class upgrade - at this point I followed random advice on the web that basically encouraged me to bid fairly aggressively low (we're about $50 above the minimum bid). Though maybe I should bump it up a bit considering the season - and the experience. It looks like you had a pretty full Saga Class section despite the winter travel date.
Your experience both on the plane and the lounge look wonderful! I like what you say about it elevating your experience of the whole trip - even *with* persistent jet lag! Who would guess that a flight/airport experience could do that?! :-) I absolutely must compliment you both on the Reykjavik food video - it was really quite lovely. You two manage to make your videos personal and relatively slowly paced - but so rich with emotional and sensory experience that it feels just right and leaves me with what I need, information-wise. It's rare in youtube. Usually one is lucky to get a detailed and well-edited (but drier) review and the other choice, if more personal, is one that is self-indulgent and boring (at least to those who aren't their immediate family - of course). Somehow you bring us viewers in and enchant us. ...while giving us exactly what we need from a factual standpoint. Best to you both!
I'll drop you a line here after our trip!
Roger your observations about our channel made our day. Thank you for sharing these reflections. You named several of the qualities that Bobby works to create as he edits our videos. It means a lot to us! Sooo... tell us about "bidding" on your tickets. Is that through Priceline? This is something we've never done before. Sounds exciting though! I believe Saga Class was full when we rode in January. I wouldn't be surprised if it's full for you too (especially since Iceland seems to be the HOT destination). But we're sending good vibes for scoring a great price on your seats!
@@theryanstravel1699 Tyler it is an option that IcelandAir offered after I bought economy class tickets. They say that on eligible flights (my take: ones where they may not expect to sell all the Saga Class at list price) that they'll send an email within 10 days of the flight. We got the email earlier than that. We had a similar option on Norweigian Air a few years ago (and scored true first class LAX to Rome for $400 above the already reasonable economy class). I've read that this bidding for an upgrade is becoming more popular - slowly spreading from airline to airline - but I don't know how many currently do it. Here's a link to Icelandair's description of their program: www.icelandair.com/support/pre-flight/class-up/
Actually - as I think about it, that's not quite true about Norweigian. We've never experienced true first class - it was probably parallel to Icelandair's Saga Class offering.
Wow tour thanks for it jeep safe always, new buddy fr Phils
Fabulous. We just subscribed to your channel!
Travelling in style, all that leg room! Love a good gin and tonic..
Yeah, we had so much leg room that I almost didn't know what to do with it all!

What a fabulous note to read from you! It sounds like you have an amazing trip coming up. Seattle, Portland, New York, sfo... all such fun options. We used to live in Portland as well ('07 to '15) and enjoyed it. Get ready for lots of rain if you visit Seattle. We always try to travel in January or February to see some sunshine and get out of the grey weather for awhile. We're in Bangkok at the moment and getting tons of heat and sun. We hope you have an amazing adventure, wherever you end up! Thanks again for the lovely message
