Akureyi started our day with perfect weather. We also noticed that two giant cruise ships had come in overnight, so we needed to skedaddle out of town. In our hotel lobby was this relief that showed the cooperation between farmer and fisherman in Iceland. Good morning beautiful mountains. Again. We’re now making our way south along the west. Mom really loved that little peak. More pretty mountains and a cute farm. Mom had told me that she didn’t really expect many mountains and she’s not sure why that is. But being here, and mostly being at sea level and having them around every turn was a treat. Farm with a church. Ya know, not a bad lunch for gas station fast food. Comfy crater. The clouds started to show themselves as we moved south. Okay, we have felt like we were on the moon or different planets while traveling this island, we were not expecting to feel like we were in Utah or Arizona. The Matterhorn may have hid from us in Switzerland, but not here! Actually, it’s the Skessuhorn mountain and we couldn’t take our eyes off it. Hello Atlantic Ocean, how are you?More abandoned homes. I need to get me a realtor for these places. They just need a little TLC. After a deep tunnel under a fjord, we pop out with a view of Reykjavik. We stop at Þingvellir, a National Park here. Where the North American plate and Eurasia plate are slowly moving apart.Selfie time!A big lake on an island in the North Atlantic. We stayed at the same hotel as last time and the view was much better!We got margaritas that match glaciers and my nails. To go with our very tasty tacos. Who knew?
