Drive from Myvatn to Akureyri - June 22, 2009

The drive between Myvatn and Akureyri is quite beautiful with tall snow-covered mountains (we were driving above the snow line at times), fast flowing mountain streams and rivers, and fjords!

Approaching Akureyri on Ring Road 1 from the east you descend at 10% grade for several kilometers and get stunning views of the fjord and the city of Akureyri.

We fly out of Akureyri tomorrow at mid-day for Reykjavik, where we'll transfer to Keflavik Airport for our flight to Boston.

We haven't seen night since June 13!

And I just looked outside (just after 1am) and the sky is blue and a Parasitic Jaeger flew over the hotel.
