Drove through the mountains to Seyðisfjarðarkirkja, a beautiful harbor town
The famous Rainbow Church
Another drive - this time to Foladafoss
Folaldafoss
What do you see?
Guarding the waterfall
Kept driving down into the valley back to Road 1.
Drove along the south coastline.
Pulled off the road multiple times to take pictures.
Had to stop here to take pictures. So beautiful.
Next stop Vestrahorn
Beautiful lava beach
Couldn't really see Vestrahorn or "Bat Man" mountain due to the clouds.
Looking out to sea
Broken heart rock
Not too many dogs seen on our trip
Leaving Vestrahorn
Back onto Road 1
First glacier sighting
Jökulsárlón Glacier Lake - stunning
Why is glacier ice blue?
It is so blue because the dense ice of the glacier absorbs every other color of the spectrum except blue - so blue is what we see!
Cue the Jaws music
Lots of birds
And lots of seals!
Polar bear sighting! In the ice any way.
Drove on to Vik - got colder and windier in the South!
The sunset was gorgeous - thought we might have a chance to see the Northern Lights
but as we drove, moved back into the clouds
Another gorgeous moon rise
This guy thought so too - that oncoming car? The police. Yeah, dude got to take a ride in the police car.
