Today’s word is horses, kids. Horses and trolls. We ran into a herd of wild horses near Bogarvirki and spent some time there petting and photographing. Onto the usual stops – Barnafoss, the troll statues at Fossatun, and the rusty old ship at Akranes.

The Lucky Cairn
Soooo apparently this is the Lucky Cairn – except – there’s something inside you’re not supposed to cover by adding more rocks. Not letting Colette drive the rest of the day.

That’s one big head right there!
