Iceland

Near Vik in the south of Iceland, we’d hoped to see Puffins – and with some luck (and the high zoom camera again), we were successful!

In the north we took a drive out past Hvammstangi to search for seals – and found them in two places on the coast!

The second group we found was much more but further away so harder to photograph (all these pictures needed my high zoom camera!) …

One of my favorite things in Iceland is the black sand / stone beaches, formed from lava … and we visited a number of them, this first at Snæfellsbær⁩ on the east coast:

Another, actually called Black Beach, that also has amazing lava cliff formations (when we visited here in 2017 the wind was strong enough to knock people over!) …
