Friends in #iceland , I'm trying to avoid a shopping frenzy. My family will be visiting the last week of #October and we find ourselves buying thermal clothes, merino wool socks, rain-proof pants, boots, etc. Renting seems as expensive as buying. It's this really all necessary if we plan to drive around and see the sights? How do you dress when going out, really?

(We live in northern Germany, will the weather be worse?)

Thanks

@samerfarha @DanielleVossebeld @blausand @robirobsen @peturdainn Funny thing: despite the blizzards and largest snowfall and driving very, very slow, we ended up never using the rain pants ¯\(ツ)/¯. Rented jackets (Didriksons) and boots were super important, on top of the merino wool base and a mid layer. As was a car with 4WD. Thanks for the good advice! Here's a picture of our average experience. It's a beautiful place.
