Chores kept us around the campground this morning so by the time we got underway the weather had stabilized and guess what - its a sunny day. Our first stop today was one of the big tourist draw cards in Iceland Godafoss (water fall of the gods) a quite impressive waterfall. The name derives from (as legend has it) that one of the early kings was required to make a decision at the annual parliament about whether Iceland would become Christian and after much deliberation he decided in favor of the "yes" case. On his journey home after the parliament he threw all his idols of the Norse Gods into this waterfall.
Continuing our jounrey north around the the Tjornes Peninsula we took a stroll around the little town of Husavik and happened upon a small museum, "The Museum of Adventure" and its plaque commemorating the training of US Apollo Astronauts in Iceland.
At the tip of the peninsula we found a side road that led down to the beach and a "falling down" rock and sod structure that we assumed was an old house. Late in the evening a guy (we presume a local farmer) came by to look at the water, but we suspect to check out who we were.
