The old abandoned boat at Tungulending
This boat has disintegrated somewhat over the years, the rear part has gone now, ravaged by the Icelandic winds and winters here in the north.
We stopped here to look for fossils from the Pleistocene period, the only fossils in Iceland. I searched the beach for an hour and found nothing. As we left I looked out of the car window down at the ground and saw a rock full of fossilised sea shells. Then I realised the whole cliff behind us was full of them.
As they say when taking photographs, always check the view behind as well!
