Here we have a wondrous landscape, almost entirely black and white, but with tantalising hints of colours.

I was driving down Jökulheimaleið, towards Jökulheimar and the glacier view when I realised I was on a flat ridge and no longer on the road.

This wasn’t a problem though.  I was in snow and could see my tyre tracks and turned around till I found the road again.

At that stage I turned back and never did get to Jökulheimar .
