  1. September versus March

    Two photos taken from roughly the same place on the the road crossing Dyrhólaós, a 4.8 km (3 mi) wide estuary near Vik í Mýrdal. The extensive mudflats are an important breeding ground for migratory birds.

    Due to the shallow depth, the area often freezes quite early in the season. By the end of winter - in about March - the frozen mud and ice are iron hard.

    coincidentally, been thinking a lot about how people dismissed Justin Trudeau for being an alarmist.

    for a country known for their apologetic culture, i don't think Canadians have apologized enough to their former prime minister.

  18. Own a piece of aviation history: Icelandair’s iconic Northern Lights plane turned into keychains.

    Icelandair’s Hekla Aurora, a Boeing 757-200, was retired in October last year having delighted plane spotters with its stunning livery since 2014.

    Now, Icelandair has teamed up with Aviationtag to take the aircraft skin and transform it into a limited edition series of keychains.

    An impressive wall of ice in shades of turquoise and grey. This was as close as our guide was prepared to bring our little Zodiac boat, and the towering face with icebergs all around showed good reason.

    Calving is the main mode of loss for glaciers, and sometimes huge slabs break away from this ≈ 35 metres (115 feet) high face. The entire glacier is ≈ 1,400 m (4,593 ft) tall, towering above our little boat.
