 Skogafoss waterfall

Myrdalsjokull ice cap

After a leisurely morning at Hotel Ranga, I set out on the drive to Skaftafell, about a 230 km drive.  Stopped along the way at the Skogafoss waterfall and later to view the ice cap above.  The Ring Road is a narrow, two-lane road along the southern coast.  Towns are few and far between but the scenery along the way is spectacular - huge glacier covered mountains dropping straight down to flat land reaching to the ocean.  I arrived at the FossHotel in Skaftafell in the afternoon and took it easy the rest of the day.
