Today we reached Grundarfjørdur,
our second destination in Iceland. During the night it was quiet bumpy and when
we reached the harbor of this very nice small settlement the weather was still
not nice. But that changed very fast. During lunchtime the sky cleared up and
the sun came out. That was more than perfect for all our excursions we had
planned in the surrounding of Grundarfjørdur. We had an excursion to a shark
farm; we had an excellent boat tour in the bay of Breidarfjordur and we had a
bus tour to the amazing highlights of Snæfelsnes. Some guests made the decision
to stay in this lovely town Grundarfjørdur; here they could enjoy the town
itself or do some hikes like a hike to one of the waterfalls next to the settlement.
Everybody came back on board with a smile in his face. It has been a perfect
end for a perfect trip.
In the evening our Captain Arild
Hårvik invited us to a farewell cocktail. Our last dinner was excellent and
when the crew brought the “Baked Alaska” with all the candles on it, everybody
felt a bit sad that the cruise came to an end. Tomorrow we will leave our
lovely lady FRAM. Some of us will stay for some days more in Iceland to learn
the country. For some guests it was already clear, they will come back on board
FRAM at any time, on any cruise on any of the seven seas.
