After a rough night with a lot of waves we woke up to calmer
seas and land it sight. We had reached the north west coast of Island. As we had not yet
reached our final destination of the day, we started the day with a nice
breakfast and four lectures.
At 12 o’clock we reached the port of Ísafjörður (ice fjord in Iceland), the largest town in the peninsula of Vestfirðir with its 4000 inhabitants. We had
almost twelve hours to be able to see the town, buy souvenirs, go to the
museum, go hiking, taste the flavors of Island and to ride on the famous Islandic
horses. It was a great first day on Island.
Today the crew had made Philipin food for us and they
finished of the night with a spectacular show at the bar. The show made us
sing, dance (even if it was only in the chair) and laugh a lot. Thank you for
that =) As the show finished, so did our
stay in Ísafjörður. As we all went to bed the ship sailed of to our next
destination: Flateyri.
