Iceland, 10: Snaefellsnes

There was still a bit of wind the next morning, but we were determined to see as much of the Snaefellsnes as we could before returning to Reykjavik. We did, and got back to Reykjavik by late afternoon, in time for our pre-departure COVID tests, and then easily found the large municipal campground.

Next morning at the Grundarfjordur campground


A promising beginning

Just past Grundarfjordur, my re-creation of
Rickie Stevie's cover photo

Volcanic waste, bluebonnets, church, craters, glaciers, mountain
with the curl on top: Snaefellsjokull

Tallest man-made structure in Iceland

Entering the national park

More volcanic wasteland

Being quite poor at fishing, I did not try the stones


Wreckage still all around

On Black Sand Beach


Actually shiny black pebbles

Reminiscent of Dimmuborgir

Perhaps our last picnic table view

And Icelandic coastal scenes...


And waterfalls...

And horses...?

...and still nobody at the picnic table. Sigh.
