We stayed the night in Djupjvogur a small fishing village situated between two beautiful fjords, Berufjorour and Harnarsfjordur and woke up to a beautiful sunny day.
A local artist carved these egg sculptures representing the eggs of native birds. They are on display not too far from the centre of the village.
Today was a long drive all the way to Laugar near the Myvatn Lake area. We had a near miss though along the way - we saw something moving very quickly in the ditch on the opposite side of the road when all of a sudden it jumped onto the road heading right towards us - it was a tire - yes! a tire - we have no idea where it came from - as there was a mountain to our left and the sea to our right. Thankfully, the tire missed us. A mystery??? or a game to see who can hit the tourist?
Another road hazard is sheep - they are all over and have the right of way - even if you are travelling at 90 kms per hour. We keep a watchful eye on them but are amazed to see them in what seems to be very remote areas.
just another day in Iceland
We requested an upgraded room and received the deluxe suite, here is the bathroom ;)
