I was in Akureyri for four days. I tried to find time to write each day about the day’s adventures, but my traveling friend and I were too busy having those adventures!

This morning began with a cappuccino at Bláa Kannan. It was delicious both in taste and art. It was the same small eatery where I had my first cappuccino when I arrived in Akureyri.

There are no words to describe the vastness of this place.

Then it was time to get on down the road for the second half of the trip. Destination, Hveragerdi.

The fields were full of Icelandic ponies.

The mountains were standing at attention as we drove past.

The rivers were flowing with all the mountains snow-melt.

It was a blustery and beautiful drive.


Eight hours later we had crossed from north to south Iceland.

Frost and Fire hotel. It’s situated on the Varmá river with the room overlooking the river. It’s our third time to stay here.

Pizza cooked in geothermal oven. Wonderful!

And to end this rather long day, there is always ice cream!
