Day 66. 3rd September. Jökulsárlón, South Iceland.

I found the ice on the black sand beach near Jökulsárlón so enticing that I decided to come back for some more images before I left….

These remind me of home! BEAUTIFUL!
Thanks very much – but where is home?
Newfoundland. Whale watching and the sound of icebergs tipping over were incredible experiences. I really felt the ocean when I saw your pictures. They are incredible.
Ah. Well actually, my patrilineal family spent a couple of generations in Newfoundland, at Exploits River on the north coast. My great grandfather sailed from Newfoundland to New Zealand in his own ship (an 80-foot barquentine) with large family and paying passengers.
Growing up in Auckland, I have always felt a close affinity with the sea.
And thanks very much.
I have only been on a ferry, crossing the ocean, I cannot imagine such a journey! The sea offers a peace unlike anything else in nature, for me anyways. I loved your post and I thank you.
The Ice Beach is a magical place. Thanks for the extra images.

Cracking set Murray I understand you can bump in to many people which detracts from the experience – how many were around you?
Not many for two reasons. First, most are at the lagoon rather than at the sea. And second, most of the people at the sea are near the car park, so walking along the beach greatly decreases the populace. Also three (out of two) it was fairly early in the morning before most people had arrived.
