Solheimajokull Glacier - by now, you're getting the hang of the Icelandic language, right? Yes...of course - me too! This is the first of a couple photos I'll share from our next stop - Solheimajokull Glacier. It was less than 30 minutes towards Vik from Skógafoss. You hang a left off the Ring Road and drive through a Mars-like landscape for 3-5km, park and walk up a short trail. The first sign of the glacier is photographed here - with a few ice calves. Someone decided to get a closer look and helped to convey the scale of the calves. - by now, you're getting the hang of the Icelandic language, right? Yes...of course - me too!

Up in the Clouds of Skógafoss - In yesterday's post, I mentioned I'd see if I could salvage any photos from the top of Skógafoss. Here is one - the actual waterfall is +/- 1/2 mile to the left of this photo - this is the flow of water that leads up to the eventual 200 ft drop. Next stop - a glacier!
