Go West - Life is peaceful there!

Góðan daginn!

The ghosty hotel gave me a very mystic sleep, so I was a little tired the next day. But the next day we wanted to go south again. As you see in the map we were in the second Fjord in the north (second from the left). and we wanted to go to the very west. 
 I guess as a goodbye present the ghost hotel father gave us a hint that we could see some seals. As animal friendly as we are we wanted to see them.

Ghosty Hotel - Hotel Blönduós

Góðan daginn,

we arrived in the city called Blönduós yesterday around 6pm. After coming there we had to call the Hotel stuff to get them to open the Hotel for us.... We felt a little uncomfi, but it was not the first time for us to stay alone in a Hotel in Iceland.

Turf houses - Glaumbær

Góðan daginn,

on our route yesterday, driving from east to west in the north of iceland we passed some turf houses. When Christoph asked me to go to Iceland I checked the Marco Polo travel guide and just said... Okay lets do this, but I have to see some of these turf houses... an snow by accident my joke came true kkkkk

Hùsavik - Whale Watching - Unbelievable!!!!!

Góðan daginn,

Christoph had to convince me to do another whale watching tour, because the first one was so super bad. We just saw 3 whales for seriously 2 seconds. So I thought, that the 50 € were pretty lost for this tour. Of course it is nature and not a zoo, so I can't blame the company, or the whales, but I was a little bit disappointed.

Whale Museum in Hùsavik

Góðan daginn,

after staying in the Fosshotel Husavik we decided to visit the Marco Polo recommended whale museum in Hùsavik. From the outside it looks like a big industry hall, but in the inside it is really cute and very informative (good characteristic for a museum). 

Hot spring - Jarbodin vid Myvatn

Góðan daginn,

after seeing the sulfur spring we came across another hot spring.... we came across a nature bath! Spontaneously as we are we stopped, got our swimwear and 2 towels and paid 20 € each person to have a once in a lifetime experience (maybe 2 times, because in Reykjavik is another one we wanted to visit).

Sulfur Spring - You take my breath away!

Góðan daginn!

After checking the snow covered mountains and the two waterfalls we wanted to go to the third waterfall of the day and finally to the city we wanted to spent the night. But on our way we smelled something really special! Something sulfuric... it's name was Nàmaskard!

It didn't take a long time until we found the reason for the baddest smell in iceland! 

It was a sulfur spring in the middle of a desert like landscape!
