Jökulsárlón again

We stopped by Jökulsárlón again on our way back from Höfn to Reykjavik as the weather had been so dismal on our first visit. It was a bit better the second time around; at least it wasn’t raining.

The icebergs in this glacier lagoon, known as Jökulsárlón, crash into the water from the Breiđamerkurjökull glacier (behind the lagoon), an offshoot of the Vatnajökull ice cap, and can stay there for up to five years on their journey to the Atlantic Ocean.
