Iceland : Glymur, Reykjavík, the end.
En français
In the morning we take a shower smelling egg because the water is coming from the source Deildartunguhver we have visited yesterday, and it's full of Sulfur.
We take the road of the fjord Hvalfjörður to go to the waterfall Glymur that we reached after a bit of hiking.
This hiking is pretty cool, we go to a small cave, cross a river on a wooden bridge, e walk and climb along the canyon to arrive at the top of the waterfall. It is the tallest waterfall in the country, 196m high and born from the river Botnsá.
At the top there are a lots of birds nests.
We then finish our tour of Iceland in Reykjavík that we visited a bit before going back to
the airport.

JanNoWriMo challenge : "Attic Mirror" part 3
Here is the part 3 of Attic Mirror. As you can see you have here the worth of several days of work. Since the last part I had few days when I had difficulty to reach my general word goal of 2500 words but I'm catching up a bit as the novel gets a bit better planed.I'm still happy with my word count so far and also with the new character I introduced that wasn't planed at all.
I hope you'll enjoy reading it as much as I'm enjoying writing it.
Stats : 9452 words more since last time for a total of 20257 words.

Iceland : Snaefellsjökull, Grábrók, Hraunfossar
En français
The road to Snaefellsjökull is quite difficult, it's full of rocks and we are a bit scared for our poor little car. Hopefully we manage to go through the glacier without too many problems.
On the opposite side we visited a little cave called Sönghellir.
We then drive to Grábrók where we can see some old volcanoes.
We then decide to go visit Reykholt but we get a bit confuse.
We finally arrive at Hraunfossar which is a place with several waterfall coming from the river Hvíta and from the ground. A lava-tube cave Víðgelmir is close by.
In Icelandic, Hraunfossar means the Lava Falls. We also visited the lave field called Hallmundarhraun.
One of the waterfall is "Barnafoss", Children's Falls and here is the story related to it :
Once there lived a widow on the farm Hraunás. She was well off and among her possessions was the farm Norðurreykir in Hálsasveit. She had two children. They were quite young when this story took place. There came a time when evening services were to be held at Christmas at Gilsbakki. The Mistress of Hraunsás and all her folk, except the children, attended the service. The children were told to stay at home and play. The moon was shining and the weather was fine. When the people came home the children had disappeared. Their footsteps led to the stone arch over the river. Their mother had the arch destroyed, saying that no man would ever be allowed to cross the falls alive. She later donated to the Church at Reykholt the farm Norðurreykir, in memory of her children. (Kristleifur Þorsteinsson II (1972) Hvítá.276)
We finally go to Akranes for the night

Iceland : Dynjandi, North-West
En français
We went back to Flateyri in the morning and continued our way in the fjords until the fjord Dýrafjörður.
We took a small path to go and see Kaldbakur from where we have a magnificent view of the fjords. Sebastien said that we didn't see Greenland there but I'm pretty sure we did at some point.
We then went to the waterfall Dynjandi. While driving around the fjord Arnarfjörður we can already see them. In fact there is seven of them, Bæjarfoss, Hundafoss, Hrísvaðsfoss, Göngumannafoss, Strompgljúfrafoss, Hæstahjallafoss and my favorite of course Dynjandi.
We then take the road back to Stykkishólmur where we find a camping for the night.
