Dynjandi (or Fjallfoss)

In a year of few amazing moments, this photo reminds me of one of my most amazing moments of last year.

I arrived at this spot after an exhilarating drive on a very warm day for Iceland. There was only one other person taking in this view with me. This photo was taken after 10 p.m., and the sun had yet to set. Turning around was this view of the Arnarfjörður fjord.

Approaching Þingeyri (Iceland) on Highway 60

Today’s photo is from my camper van in Iceland during the summer solstice last year. I have my plane tickets for Europe this summer. Hopefully planes will be flying to Europe then. No Iceland for me this year. I think my wilderness adventures will take place in Slovenia this go around.

Solstice season

Arnarfjörður from Dynjandi

Today’s photo was taken a few days before the summer solstice, after 10 p.m., on a night that never became dark*, in northwestern Iceland.

Today we are a few days before winter solstice, and I long for those long, warm days of summer.

* More than an hour later, on the same day, at 11:30 p.m., my world looked like this.
