After a tiring day of tiring driving after no sleep, we arrived in Borgarnes. The roads are so much better than in Canada, and there are sheep and horses until the eye can see. The Borgarnes B&B was a little full, so we took rooms in the owner´s part of the house ... wow ... granite bathrooms and kitchen, large rooms! One thing we weren´t prepared for was the 24hrs of sun. Yes, you read it, there is no night at this time of year. I woke up at midnight and it was light outside. Thankfully we brought some eyepatches. Today we are off to volcanic coast parks of the west peninsula region. We should be seeing some crazy looking cliffs, and lots of seabirds in the coming days.
