Enjoying the views

Today we explored the Snæfellsnes peninsula. We stopped off at the black pebble beach: Djupalonssandur, where we admired the crashing waves and Abbie and Pippa tried their strengths by lifting big stones that were used to measure if men were strong enough to be allowed on the fishing boats.
We then had coffee with lovely cakes in Hellisssandur (the best we had all holiday). We also thought of stopping at the Kirkjufellfoss, apparently one of the most photographed areas in Iceland but after seeing so many extraordinary waterfalls this one disappointed. So we continued on to Stykkishólmur, where the photo was taken. This is an beautiful little fishing town overlooking the bay. As you can see, we even had blue sky.
