Taking to her social media platforms to share her experience of the country, the Morning Live anchor first wrote:
“Guys I’m in Iceland and it’s flipping unbelievable.”
“In just one day … I found a message on a wall in Reykjavik. Found my guardian angel (a white feather) randomly waiting for me on an empty black beach. We soaked in a geothermal pool naturally heating to 40 degrees and drove through the night with sun shining overhead until we reached our location in a secluded village perched on a mountain overlooking a glacier. ‘Isn’t it our job as humans to be collecting great moments?’”

Finally, the mom of two shared that her breath was taken away by the blue glaciers before her.
She added:
“I watched ‘diamonds’ glisten on an Icelandic black beach where we drank Scottish whiskey with one of those salty diamonds. Found a red roofed church in a tiny village that overlooked the magnificent three black basalt columns called the Reynisdrangar protruding from the stormy North Atlantic. Legend has it that the rocks are three trolls. All that was actually real and not a dream.”
