Day 2....Where's Herve Villechaize?

Day 2 was supposed to be an easy one...not much planned. On our list was a US Navy plane that emergency landed in 1974. We spotted an unmarked parking lot so that had to be the place. What we didn't realize was Herve and Ricardo were not there to greet us. 45 minutes of walking later along desolate wasteland a la Neil Armstrong and voila...."the plane". From here we rambled further east towards Vik.....along the way we had brief stops to admire the black sand beaches and the jagged coastline. NOT a day at the beach by any means but we lucked out finding an awesome cave that was playing host to what appeared to be a high end photo shoot.....a good looking, well dressed couple...he in a tux...she in a lovely gown yet she must have been freezing her butt off......prior to all of this we met and exchanged info with a couple from Edmonton (go Oilers). Onward to Vik....scored a nice dinner there before heading further to Horgsland Guesthouse....talk about 1 notch above a hostel...this was it!!

Big day tomorrow.....lagoon ride to a glacier via a zodiac followed by a scenic drive to Hofn.Read more
