18.-19. October 2004
Morning comes cool and wet. It's chilly as the temperature is only 2° Celsius.
The Isuzu Trooper on the crossroads where we start sticking again.
The track crosses a small river with this beautiful waterfall.
Water in the Icelandic highlands is crystal clear when it does not come from glaciers. It is almost always save to drink directly.
Starting on our way back, Einar discovers a broken radius arm bracket.
Gunni loosens the radius arm from the bracket.
Dagur has two batteries and connects them together. Einar takes out his battery and connects that one also.
The three batteries give enough power to weld the crack together.
The result is almost better than new!
As we drive south and west the sun starts shining...
...making the autumn colors stand out...
...but driving is a bit difficult with the sun so low!
Close to Reykjavik an accident makes a real traffic jam. The last couple of kilometers take half an hour.
The weekend has been really great!
Hope you enjoyed the writing and the pictures.
Saturday - Sunday
