A long day of driving today, about six hours in total with a few stops for diesel (over $300 to fill the tank from about a 1/4 full !!!), toilet stops, lunch stops, Icelandic handcraft shops , and stops for photos on some of the rare pull-out spots.

| Not a bad spot for lunch |
We boiled the kettle in the van and made soup and coffee.

Hand made beer mitten.
Everyone should have one! |
It was a really pretty drive, past farms and valleys, and them eventually we hit the sea. We are now in the West Fjords, sparsely populated, with limited usable land, and little fishing villages dotted around.

| We hit the west coast |
After about 6 hours, we make it to Dynjandi, and it did not disappoint.

| Dynjandi waterfall, amazing |

| Looking back toward the car park |
We spent a few hours here taking photographs, it's a really big area with Dynjandi at the top of the photo above, and several other smaller falls as well.

Once we we're done, we headed to camp for the evening, in a little village right on the fjord which has a very clean and well equipped campsite. While I went to pay the fee, B pulled in to park in a spot. She was asked by the camper next door to move as we were blocking their sun, and they were about to have a BBQ. How rude! She moved over a couple of feet, and we thought that was the end of the matter. No. We soon heard their camper start up, and they moved to the other end of the camp, and came back and got all their outdoor stuff! Here they are enjoying glorious unblocked sunshine 🙄
