Ísland February 23rd - 27th 2009

Back to Iceland - we had not been there for a month and Sylvi was running out of harðfisk so we had to go back - this time we rented a car and enjoyed the fantastic scenery of the island - some people might believe that Iceland is cold - it's not compared to Norway - well.. the wind is a bit chilly but according to the chart below, it's actually a lot warmer on Iceland than Norway during the winter months.
