Iceland - Day 5

We drove through an eerie lunar landscape, to reach Dettifoss, Europe's largest waterfall by volume (500 cubic meters per second)...


...then through more alien landscapes (perhaps like Venus) to Hverir, with boiling mud and steam...



to the Krafla volcano crater, now filled with water...



An entire day closest to what it would be like on other planets...

Yes, I'm wondering, are you still on earth? Or have you passed through the veil.

Charles, it really feels that way most of the time... a truly otherworldly experience...

Cuban in London, thank you! Greetings from Ólafsfjördur! :-)

It does look like an alien world doesn't it? Perhaps this will give tons of material for new stories and novels.
