Road trip to Holmavik

Started early-ish... in the rain... again... today's adventure is a road trip to the Snaefellsner Peninsula and the West Fjords. What I thought was a long bridge on the map turned out to be a long tunnel... a 6km tunnel under the Hvaldjordur fjord... a nice reprieve from the rain.. first stop:
Akraneviti Lighthouse - there are 2 lighthouses, the smaller one built in 1918 and the bigger one currently in use.
Skallagrimms Buriel mound - the closest thing to a cemetary so far
Gerduberg Cliffs- basalt columns
then a crazy hour long drive on a 'secondary' road... which should be the equivalent to say the fraser highway vs Hwy 1... but is really more like a bad forest service road in Canada...virtually all pot holes... and no gas stations or bathrooms anywhere (they DO NOT coddle you here, lol, not one 'check your fuel' signs...).. and finally, we emerge in Holmavik... and head straight to the first bathroom!
then, The Museum of Witchcraft & Sorcery...🧙🐦‍⬛ amazing little gem with lots of history.
And finally to our hotel in the mountains for dinner, drinks (yup... licorice beer!) and a bunch of natural hot springs and pool time... even the clouds parted for us! 🖤Meer informatie
