A brighter day today, still some cloud but no rain. This is Hvalfordur...fordur is Icelandic for fiord...and we are on our way to the tallest waterfall in Iceland.
In the distance is the fiord from the previous photo, where we have parked the car and began our ascent to the Glymur waterfalls.
After an hours climb we see the falls....they are stunning...onwards to the top where we will cross over to the other side of the gorge.
Almost there....
It felt wonderful to reach the top of the falls and then walk across the river....had to strip off our socks and boots and paddle up to our knees in freezing cold water. Peter refilled our water bottles with the ice cold water.
In the late afternoon we arrived at Langaholt, where we will be staying for two nights. It is again a country hotel on the Snaefellsjokull peninsula. There are mountains to the right of us and ocean to the left. Peter and I went for a walk before our dinner along the beach and watched the cloud lift above the mountain...called Snaefellsjokull . What a perfect day.
