Woke up at about 8am. Warden told us that it would be safer for us to hike together because the winds were up to 49mph.

The room was cold, and when we looked out the window we saw this.

Group picture before we left the hut.

Hiked 15KM from Emstrur – Þórsmörk (Pronounced Thorsmork)

Þórsmörk is just about 10km north of Eyjafjallajökull, (the volcano that erupted in 2010 which caused air traffic to stop in many parts of Europe)

Awesome pic of Eyjafjallajökull. Thanks Ryan!

Arrived an hour before the bus left back to Reykjavik. Its been a while since I’ve been so happy to see a bus in my life.

Its of a bummer that we didnt continue our journey all the way back to Skogar. The journey would have taken an extra day of hiking which we would hike inbetween Eyjafjallajökull and Katla (a volcano which erupts every 100 years, 10x bigger than Eyjafjallajökull and is suppose to erupt 2 years ago). Its said that when taking this route to Skogar you could walk up the foot of Eyjafjallajökull and the ground is still warm from the eruption in 2010. However with the condition of my legs there was no way I would be able to hike another 20km.

On the way back we passed Seljalandsfoss. The winds were so strong the waterfall flew back upwards. No good pics of this waterfall as we were in the bus 🙁

Bus ride took 2 hours. We then checked in at Backpackers.

What would YOU have for dinner?

Puffin taste kinda sweet. I like it.

Whale meat in the other hand…kinda tough even though we ordered Medium Rare.

Awesome sleep with proper beds.
