Tuesday, 14-May-2024


My original plan for Tuesday the 14th was to soak in the hot springs at Hvammsvik… but, because of reasons, they decided that Tuesday the 14th was the best day to clean the hot springs all at once, and close the whole resort.

Which I learned, of course, after I’d arrived and found a large locked gate.


Whatever. I’m on a road trip, during an adventure across Europe. Large locked gates aren’t an obstacle, they’re merely a redirection! To a different hot spring! And a waterfall!

So I drove to Fossarrett the Older. It was pretty. Wandered a bit, flew the drone a bit, looked at the ancient ruins, tried (and failed) to find a history of said ancient ruins… Or find out if they even technically are ancient… and didn’t succeed.

But I did relax, I did stretch my legs, and I did have a good time. Which, after all, is very much the goal.
