Though only early May the sun set around 11pm each evening. This night we drove into the 4 hour long sunset while traversing the Eastfjords.
Heading to the far northeastern corner of Iceland in search of Puffins!
Curious pelagic birds that only spend time on land during nesting season. Atlantic Puffins typically mate for life and return to the same nest each summer after overwintering solitary in the mid to north Atlantic Ocean.
Short hike to a 634m summit just off road 94 on the way in/out of Bakkagerdi. Straddling two fjourds, this ridge climbed above the clouds which socked in the fjourd to the East, yet hadn't touched the one to the West.
Mudpots and sulfur springs just East of Myvatn.
