The panorama from the campsite in Hella was quite good 🙂 Das Panorama vom Campingplatz in Hella war nicht schlecht 🙂 We heard loudspeaker announcements and music nearby, so we went to have a look what’s happening. It was a horse competition. They were tölting 🙂 Wir hörten Lautsprecherdurchsagen und Musik in der Nähe, und…
Dyrhólaey / Sólheimajökull / Skógafoss / Seljalandsfoss – 28.5.2022
Since we didn’t have much time on Dyrhólaey yesterday, we went there again. We parked on the lower car park. Danger of rock slides prevented access to Kirkjufjara beach. Da wir gestern nicht viel Zeit auf Dyrhólaey hatten, versuchten wir es nochmals. Wir parkierten auf dem unteren Parkplatz. Gefahr von Felsabbrüchen verhinderte den Zugang zum…
around Vik – 27.5.2022
Photos of Vik show (in our eyes) a typical Icelandic village. And we’re fascinated by the huge cars ! Diese Fotos von Vik zeigen (in unseren Augen) ein typisches isländisches Dorf. Und die riesigen Autos faszinieren uns immer wieder ! We walked up the Mount Reynisfjall. It’s a gravel road, and apparantly one of the…

Höfn – 25.5.2022
It rained when we woke up, so we took our time getting up, We have the luxury that our next appointment is not until September 7th 🙂 We then drove to Höfn for shopping and drinking coffee. The peninsula Ósland outside Höfn was just right for a walk … Es regnete, als wir aufwachten… Wir…

Norröna – ferry to Iceland – 21.-24.5.2022
Three days on a ferry … Not exactly my kind of fun … But the sea gods were kind to us 🙂 Waiting to go on, and driving onto the ferry, on Saturday afternoon: The Norröna, leaving Hirtshals 🙂 First we sailed close to the coast of Norway, then to the Shetland Islands (visible in…
Vejlerne – Løkken – Hirtshals – 19./20.5.2022
We spent the night in Sønderby near Ringkøbing, at a private house who provides space for campervans. At night we noticed that our inside battery wasn’t working anymore 😦 That meant: no fridge, no water pump for the sink, no inside light, no heating… We spent the day going to three different garages, first to…
Rømø (DK) – 18.5.2022
We climbed all three mountains of Rømø ! To get from one „mountain“ to the next, we walked through fields and forests and dunes. We enjoyed the sunny weather and the lovely scenery! Some horses were putting on a show for us 🙂 There are a lot of horses on Rømø. A big sandpit for…
