Fjaðrárgljúfur, Iceland (August 2017)

Green landscapes are not the first thing that pops into one’s head when thinking of Iceland. However, in early August, after about 3 months of nearly continuous sunlight, there is indeed a lot of green to be found in Iceland.

I’ve never thought of becoming a sheep farmer, but imagine being THE sheep farmer in this photo and living in this location. Those little white things (on the left-hand side of the center of the image) are sheep.

My first stop, after picking up my campervan near the airport on my way to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula and Westfjords, was this one. I had planned to do a hike of just under 5 miles. Alas, my back was killing me so I ended up walking just a couple hundred yards instead. The views were spectacular, but I would love to be able to do the entire hike someday.
