chill day around Selfoss

Today we let ourselves drift and move along new and 'familiar' paths. We have visited Selfoss twice before and like the now-grown settlement that offers everything one needs. We quickly buy some supplies for the coming days and continue to Stokkseyri, a small colorful fishing village with scenic tidal flats, a historic 'Fishing Hut,' and many small attractions. We conclude our brief visit with a stop at the campground because we will return to camp here for a day or two and explore everything at a leisurely pace.

Our drive continues past the Knarraros Lighthouse, the last Icelandic dairy farm, to the banks of the Pjórsá to catch a glimpse of Traustholtshólmi, a small homestead on an island in the 'colorful river,' which we cannot see from above with the drone due to the persistent strong winds (maybe later :-))

We wander around a bit more and drive along the 305 to Urridafoss, which is just as turbulent and even a bit wilder than in November 23.

Time to return to the campground to prepare some food before the 'rush' on the kitchen and to use the small common room for a warm dinner, while also checking the tent once more for the upcoming gusts.
