Day 9 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was a badly nee

Day 9 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was a badly needed slow day that I made happen by forgoing the idea of driving the Diamond Circle in a 2WD. There’s a 32 mile section of gravel road between Dettifoss and Asbyrgi and I’d rather not see another whale watching village (have seen them plenty in other places) and another canyon (same here) than experience miles upon miles of Icelandic gravel road again.

So I just went to Dettifoss instead, collecting smaller Mývatn area sights along the way, and my sincere strongest impression of Mývatn is: OMG the flies! They’re everywhere, it’s crazy, it’s hard to see and hard to breathe, I’ve encountered flies before, but not like that. Many people were wearing protective head covers – they are probably selling in local souvenir shops, but I didn’t want to buy one just for today. To say the truth, it wasn’t equally bad everywhere. Some areas have them more, some have them less, so the flies didn't completely ruin my day.

To wrap up the day I went to Mývatn Nature Baths. The water and the scenery are good. Everything else – well, as you know I’m strongly biased, or rather spoiled by years of soaking in hot springs in Japan, so. I will probably not get out of my way to visit another hot spring in Iceland – except for if I stumble upon a natural spring completely free of people, but the probability of that happening is close to zero. Everyone actively loves Iceland now.

Slowly but surely falling in love with Paris.

I’m getting a hang of it – being slow, I mean. I go out every other day, picking one place, doing one thing - like seeing one floor of d’Orsay museum at a time and then just heading for a restaurant :) I should have planned for 2 months here instead of one, but at the time I wasn’t sure. Now I know for sure that I can live like this and I’m really looking forward to it. Winter in Thailand, spring maybe (please!) in Japan. I’ve stopped hoping for China reopening in any foreseeable future, but maybe Taiwan… Maybe Singapore? Anywhere they speak Mandarin, of any kind. I’m not being picky anymore. Please.

When I studied French in school I used to know a lot about Paris. Most of this knowledge has faded away together with my French, but even for those bits and pieced that remain, learning about is not the same as seeing it with your own eyes. And it isn’t just about seeing either. I’ve actually been to Paris twice before but so briefly I couldn’t get any real feel of the city. The impression I got then wasn’t even all that good. Now that I’m discovering Paris very, very slowly – avoiding the crowds, going with the flow of the weather – all those places from textbooks and articles in my childhood for the first time come to life for me.

Palais Garnier is the most beautiful opera house I’ve been to, although I haven’t been to many, especially when it comes to Europe. This time I saw Iphigénie en Tauride – nice music, beautiful voices, but I didn’t appreciate the weird modern-style production. I hope not all their operas this season are staged like this.

I’ll be soon running out of adjectives to describe how beautiful Iceland is. The scenery gets more dramatic the further south you go, where I am now (between Holt and Vik) the land mass rises so abruptly from the sea level it’s just breathtaking, on the right side everything is absolutely flat, disappearing into the sea, on the left – sheer cliffs with dozens of waterfalls. I’ll take closer look at this landscape tomorrow, today was really all about the Westman Islands, which are breathtaking in their own right (and also a Dunnett location).

Day 3 of my Ring Road trip was really long, I got to Heimaey on the first ferry and left on the one before last, and after getting off the ferry quickly stopped by Seljalandsfoss waterfall on my way to the guesthouse.

What I enjoyed the most today:

Amazing scenery of Westman Islands

My fist puffins (see reel) and beluga whales at Sea Sanctuary in Heimaey. I also saw some puffins in the sea from the boat, but no puffins on land, September is too late for that already.

Learning about 1973 volcanic eruption in Heimaey (when you live on a volcano, sometimes volcano comes to your home…)

Seljalandsfoss waterfall (yeah, it’s cool when you can get behind the waterfall, especially of that size).
