Winter pictures 

Well.. they are here folks. Some pictures I took on my drive which ended in Skaftafell last Saturday.




This is Seljalandsfoss, the one which we walked behind.



A bit of rock in the river by Seljalandsfoss decorated by winter!




Skogafoss by the museum at Skogar. A bit less water now than during the summertime!




The Skaftafell glacier during winter. Do you remember how it looked like when you saw it during summer? You really see it is a glacier when it is winter!



Svartifoss at Skaftafell.



These things are called "Grylas' candles" here in Iceland! Do you remember Gryla? She is the mother of all the 13 santa Clauses we have here!

Winter in Iceland! 

Snow, snow and more snow!
Last weekend I went for a drive... It ended up being a very very long drive because I turned back when I'd gone as far as Skaftafell. On the way I looked atthe waterfalls Seljalandsfoss, Skogarfoss and Svartifoss. During the summer I come to these waterfalls 4-5 times during the guiding season but I don't rember ever coming there during the winter.
I will put in some pictures when I have more time.. Build up some appetite for everyone to come back during the winter!
