| | Reykjanes - Grindavik, Blue Lagoon (Iceland) |
 | | It wasn't stormy, but you could still feel the immense power of the sea here - I wouldn't want to have been taking a small boat out even in good weather! |
 | | It was raining lightly so we pushed on to Grindavik for lunch, which was an excellent meal in a fish restaraunt - monk-fish for Camilla, haddock for Anna, and "three kinds of fish" for me. The Icelandic Salt Fish Museum has a surprisingly fascinating history of salt-fishing in Iceland; there's also an attached art gallery. |
 | | They were selling saltfiskur (saltfish), and Anna bought a bag just to try it - it has the consistency of cardboard, with a slight fish taste (for some reason it's popular in Spain and Portugal). |
