Mixed Bag
7月28日, アイスランド ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C
A rest day today after the epic F26.

Got talking to Thomas (Swiss) at Laugar campsite who was interested in my tent - the Tarptent Scarp-1. Thomas has a very impressive old Land Cruiser + fridge + rooftent + tent + 3 children. His wife (also Swiss) grew up in Chandler's Ford and lived 1 km from my house - small world.

After a car rearrangement (my fourth) I washed off the F26 dust and showered. Change of socks today NB travel-bloggers: merino does eventually pong a bit!

Cold and rainy so headed to Myvatn which I visited in 2001. Much has changed. Parking charges at tourist sites now - so parked up and e-biked.

Lunch was local rye bread and smoked trout served by a Scotsman with an Icelandic accent.もっと詳しく

F26 Part 2
7月26日, アイスランド ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C
After a night camping at Nýidalur hut (4C people i.e. cold) I was escorted across two rivers by the 112 Search and Rescue guys (a thank you to "Victory John").

I had the misfortune to go to the cinema to see one of the latest Bond films. The title escapes me although the tedium of the film doesn't. After five minutes I couldn't wait for the film to end but I knew that I would have to sit through over two hours of the director trying to be "edgy" but failing and so two hours of tedium The F26 was pretty much like that bond film - it was ok for the first five minutes, but I couldn't wait for it to end. It took over four hours.

The Range Rover performed superbly although it is now brown rather than black as it is coated in dust.もっと詳しく

The F26
7月26日, アイスランド ⋅ ☀️ 7 °C
This road runs north south and was the main route in ancient times. After leaving Landmannalaugar and refueling (diesel and coffee) I headed north. 2/3 done by 18.00. So now camping at Nýidalur. Ranger has offered to escort across 2 rivers tomorrow.

Met a Danish influencer bruhOliver at the Nýidalur hut walking the F26. The folly/inspiration of youth!!もっと詳しく

What's an F in Road?
7月26日, アイスランド ⋅ ☁️ 4 °C
Iceland F Roads....the off-road-roads of gravel, rock, sand and river crossings. So done with trepidation at first and then...my first river crossing. The Range Rover was set to max height on the air suspension, low ratio and...off I went. Success. A few more rivers and I think I've got the hang of it. However...the Icelanders have snorkels on their air intakes. Do the know something that I don't?もっと詳しく

F225 to Landmannalaugar
7月24日, アイスランド ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C
Plans, who needs them? Was going to take F208 (no river crossings) but spoke to park ranger and swapped routes. Oh what an epic and I'm no longer a river crossing virgin

Jokulsarlon And Crossing The Sandur
6月11日, アイスランド ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
What a difference twenty years makes. Fancy hotels everywhere, paid parking. Jokulsarlon lagoon like Piccadilly Circus. Perhaps "being in the moment" is better than the Instagram selfie everyone

And the Sandur? Almost infinite black sand and dust. Plus a memorial made from the mangled girders of a bridge destroyed by a jökulhlaup (volcano induced massive glacier flood)もっと詳しく

The Eastern Fjords
6月10日, アイスランド ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C
An underrated and poorly visited part of Iceland. I can see why as very slow driving around stunning fjords.

Stopped at the "Viking Cafe" and swapped to bicycle to explore, thereby avoiding extortionate parking fees. Chatted with barista in cafe and because I was pleasant he gave me a free ticket to the "village experience"

Hofn for refuel and then partook swimming pool and hot tubs.もっと詳しく

Airbnb last night - washing machine and comfy bed. Comatose sleeping

Cycling today up to Vök Spa - looks nice but £50. Cheapskate so went to municipal pool for £7. Pool, hot tubs, sauna.

Cycle paths here - amazingもっと詳しく

Leaving Bakkagerði
6月7日, アイスランド ⋅ 🌧 7 °C
I came for an hour to see Puffins. I stayed three days. What appears a dying fishing port is a hive of activity. Hotel, spa, shop, brewery, bar, cafe.

I went to the spa and hot tub three times (Nurse Eva was on reception), bar was great, visited "day of fish" afternoon tea at community centre (in Icelandic) : maturinn var ljúffengur.

Helloooo Iceland
6月4日, アイスランド ⋅ 🌫 4 °C
Uneventful crossing and an entirely comatose 10 hour sleep. Splashed out in buffet dinner in board where I ate fish x 3 (plates). Great staff on the ship. At breakfast I got awarded free coffee for being honest and attempting to pay for a refill - some nationalities (naming no names here) don't do this (allegedly)

Now in Seydisfojdur - expected issues with Icelandic customs being the only Brit on the boat (99% Dutch and German) but sailed through in my black drug-dealer Range Rover

Goodbye Faroes
6月2日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
A stunning archipelago - much more to do than I imagined. Friendly people ,- got invited by Pell to coffee in his family's home. Undersea tunnels connect some of the islands - making the driving much easier.

And. Hello to Hugo from France who was blazed the trail that I want to https://www.polarsteps.com/hugomgln/25437144-is…

Torshavn and Human Kindness
6月1日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C
Torshavn breakfast and then Kiskjubour. Right on form had Range Rover problem. Limped back to Torshavn. Asked a garage - directed to another - directed to another and then, finally, someone who could fix it. So big the thanks to Wenzel Cars and Martin. Great kindness show.n. Whilst being repaired I thumbed lift into Torshavn from a local politician. Human kindness in abundance.
Car fixed, drove undersea tunnel (and underground roundabout) to Esturoy and camp site. There was a stupendous new pool and wellness suite to sampleもっと詳しく
