As said last night: an early rise at 6AM to take a (last) shower
before heading to out trail. After breakfast we are ready to take
the 7:15 bus to the airport. Here we have to wait another hour
for our bus that will drive us to Skogar (estimated 3 hours).
After some stops, postal deliveries and a drive along the beautiful
southern coast we can disembarge at 11:20. Stepping through some wet
grassland, we can arrive at the site where we need to set up our
tents. Just in front of the waterfall... Magnificent...
Johan, Jo and Karin will search for a shop to get food for
tonight. They have to hitch-hike 7km. The other can take
a near look of this big waterfall.
When the whole group is back at the campsite, we will take
an cultural axcursion in this tiny settlement: a nice museum
about ancient Iceland (including an old fishing boat, and
som older grass-covered houses) and a beautifull church.
Back at our tents, it's time to test our cooking equipment, but
only two out of the three fire (gasoil) are working and we
won't be able heat everything at the same time...
But the lamb-meat is still beter then what we will have
during the next six day (dried food).
At 10PM some of us have enough energy to hike to the top of
the waterfall to have a great view over the site... the rain
during the night doesn't bother us, we will be happy if we
can walk in dry weather...
