Iceland Day 5 - Isafjordur and Sudavik
This morning when I got up we were just pulling into Isafjordur on the northwest side of Iceland. I’ve taken a picture of some maps today. The one is a zoomed in shot of the area we are in. Kinda like the waving hand coming off the upper left of the main island called the Westfjords. The cliff-like mountains on either side of the ship are quite impressive, yet brown and rocky. The little town of Isafjordur has 2,800 residence. Our tour today of the area is just half a day, which is good, because the weather is beautiful and we were looking forward to resting and enjoying the beautiful day. Spoiler alert...today’s blog is going to be a very facts and figures type of blog. More of a lesson (current and historical) from the local area. It’s very interesting and I’m glad I took a pen and paper today, because I took lots of notes! Here they come! At 8:30 we met our tour guide of the day, her name I can’t pronounce, but she said it meant “fairy of the mountains”. That got an “awwwwww”...
