Transportationday. Leaving at 10 am frm BSI to Holmavik. Very nice busride. Lot's of mountains, waterfalls and lava-fields.

The bus is at Holmavik at 3 pm. Then there is an hours wait before another bus goes to Isafjörður at what is know as the West-fiords.

Now its not just nice anymore - now it's extemely nice. Mountains and fjords all over. In a direct line it's not such a long trip, but since we have to get around 4-5 fiords - and since it's mainly dust-road - it takes you 4 hours.

At 8 pm check in at Gistiheimili Aslaugar a private guesthouse. A sign is asking you to take off your shoes before you enter, but a number of slippers is available for the visitors. I end up this day with a walk and some fastfood.

This day I spend by taking a look at Isafjörður. It's a cozy little village with only 3.500 people living here. It's placed on a tongue of land sticking out into one of the fiords. On both sides of the fiord there are high mountains. I have never before visited a village, which was places so spectacularly.

I take a look at this place and at the harbour. I also visit the maritime museum, that is placed in som 250 year old commercial houses, back from the days where the danes were taking hand of all commercial activity on Iceland.

A 3 hour long walk from the morning. I walk to Tungudalur which is a valley, going in between som of the mountains. Here you find small cottages, a 9-hole golfcourse, some waterfalls and nice hills.

Back in Isafjörður at 1 pm. The rest of this day is relaxation. Coffee at the very cozy "Old pharmacy". Evening-burger at Pizzeria 67, with the motto "make pizza - not war". And you can only agree on that.
