This was the final day in Greenland. We had to check out of the hotel by 10am which was hard going given what time we got to bed last night.
The main activity today was another visit to the boardЧитать далее

Our flight was scheduled to be at ten minutes past midnight and our transfer to the airport was at 10pm. This was really early given there's nothing at the airport to do, eat or drink. It is tiny.
WeЧитать далее

The second part of this adventure is very different. I am no longer part of a group of twelve in lovely accommodation and a miriad of organised activities, with great food in restaurants. Now I am onЧитать далее

If you have followed the two previous Iceland trips with me then you will know of these two waterfalls. They are not too far away from each other and you can visit them on the way to Vik, but whatЧитать далее
ПутешественникAnother excellent set, Rob. The first sentence of your narrative answered a question - I thought I’d seen these waterfalls before!
ПутешественникThanks. I've visited these three times now and each time is different.

I'd not been driving all that long when I noticed a sign to Sólheimajökull which you might think is meaningless, but the word Jökull means 'glacier' and somehow I never expected to find one where IЧитать далее
ПутешественникI think this is where I did a glacier walk the first time I went to Iceland
ПутешественникWasn't that with me or did you go before? If it was the glacier walk with me then this isn't the place.
ПутешественникAh ha, I forgot that you went then. Not sure how I hadn't spotted this place in that case. It must have been open quite a while then.

The next morning I was finally heading to Vik, which is a town about halfway along the south coast of Iceland. A little before you arrive there is a right turn which takes you to this viewpoint whereЧитать далее

About 15 minutes before you reach Vik there is another right turn that takes you to this black sand beach. Here you can walk westward along its huge expanse back towards the viewpoint I just visited,Читать далее

Today is a traveling day to get to the eastern corner of Iceland. I'm stopping in a campsite in Skaftafell National Park, the nearest to where I need to be for tomorrow's adventure.
This footprint isЧитать далее

The real adventure is this afternoon but this morning I went exploring a glacier again - I just can't help it. 😁
This is the glacier I have walked on twice. The first time was on my surprise tripЧитать далее
