I think it's a bit too far out of the way for this trip. We will be doing a bird-viewing trip up near Husavik, and looking for puffins there (which is my main interest, I love the cuties!)

GD - with your itinerary, I think that you're right.

So long as you're going to see puffins somewhere - they are the most attractive bird.

I've seen them in Scotland, but was on the Isle of Staffa, with a storm angling in - they wouldn't stand still long enough to get a good photo of them They are adorable.

if you love puffins...are you going on a cruise from Reyjavik at all? we did the short puffin cruise out of the harbor and saw lots of them:

Wasn't planning on a Reykjavik one, but a Husavik whale/puffin cruise (http://www.gentlegiants.is/tours-and...-whale-safari/)

I'm back~!!!! I blogged every day! I will write up a formal trip report, and go through my 9000 photos shortly (I swear!) but for now, if you want the details, my blog is greendragonartist.net.

thanks for the link to your blog, GD. I haven't got time to read it all yet but the pics are good and it looks very interesting.

Glad you had what looks to have been such a great trip [and yes those Western Fjords do seem to go on forever, don't they?]

They do! But they were lovely.
