Fishing

Friday Sept 23
We spent last night on Einar's farm, just off the Ring Road. The family church was our landmark. The sky was so clear and the stars so bright, that we had hoped to see the Aurora.

We woke to sheep grazing outside our window and a white farm cat sitting in it. It is a glorious day for fishing!

The Ring Road to Akureyri was stunning with the sun illuminating the snow dusted peaks on either side of the narrow valley.

We met our guide, Elle, at his house, got fitted with boots and waders, and took off in his truck with Yoyo, the dog. The river is cold, the air fresh, and the sky clear. Ah, but it's called fishing, not catching. We both made good casts, but the fish just were not biting. They must had had other things to do on this magnificent, outside day.
