First week on the road

For the next four weeks this will be our home. Quite well equipped. With shift gear and of course servo steering. We had to shop a few things to add comfort. The table is also our office. Our first stop was an open air museum, where we gathered some information about Icelands recent history. Of course, Iceland is a volcanic island. Prepaired to walk up for just under an hour to the newest Islandic volcano First signs of it! Yes, and in the distant there it is! That is from as close as we could go to it. The lava flows really far! And here we could have grilled a saussage! Again the glowing lava. Next intersting stop was in a geothermic area with solfataras. It was smelling and steaming...

Sabine wanted to go there since years, but in the last years the huge numbers of tourists had put us off. Now was the time! I did some research in the Internet and found Kria-Tours, a German Tourist Office that is specialized for nordic holidays and therefore also for Iceland. Our plan was to hire a mobile home and tour for three weeks around that island. Katja, the so very helpful lady from Kria-Tours gave us a lot of tipps and hints. So we were ready to go there beginning of Sept. 2020. I had booked the flights myself directly with Icelandair. Well, a very few days before we should have left, Katja informed us, that due to very new regulations we would have to undergo a five days Quaranteene after arriving in Iceland. One week out of our planned three weeks?! - That does really not make sense. Therefore we postponed everything for 2021. End of December we had to decide t...
