...Island-Style. It's been colder lately in the Midwest and Northeast U.S. than any time in the past 10 years, so how much worse could it be in Iceland? Plus, they've got something we don't: geothermal pools! IcelandAir is offering a special five-day "Winter Wellness" trip with round-trip airfare from Boston, a room at the four-star Hotel Loftleidir, and entry to Reykjavik's Laugar Spa and Blue Lagoon for $669 for double occupancy.
