We were attempting to drive up to an overlook, but unfortunately the way was closed. As we were contemplating on where to go next, the sun bathed the distant Vik Church in some beautiful light. Of course, none of us were prepared, and I certainly missed the moment.

I still liked this view point. Such a dramatic backdrop to this lovely little church.

A very windy and cloudy day, but the sun was trying to break through.

The only thing sweeter than being in Iceland is being back in Iceland :)

Schöner als in Island zu sein, ist nur zurück in Island zu sein!

So little snow and blue skies for february.

Vik harbour, looking over Sognefjord

Ubicada en lo alto de una pequeña montaña, la iglesia de Vik, parece vigilar desde arriba las formaciones rocosas que parecen surgir del agua en la cercana costa. Y debe hacerlo, porque según la tradición son trols que tuvieron el infortunio de quedar atrapados en ese lugar, petrificados por la luz del sol, así que más vale que siga teniéndolos vigilados por si un día vuelven a la vida.

Leyendas aparte, esta preciosa iglesia de los años 30, de formas rectas y de un blanco inmaculado, fue diseñada por uno de los primeros arquitectos islandeses, Samúelsson y levantada por un hábil carpintero local.

The famous sea stacks at vik, southern iceland !

Vík í Mýrdal is a remote seafront village in south Iceland. It sits in the shadow of Mýrdalsjökull glacier, which covers the Katla volcano. Reyniskirkja is a wooden church dating to 1929. Reynisfjara beach has black pebbles, basalt columns and the Reynisdrangar offshore rock formations. The cliffs of Reynisfjall mountain are home to seabirds such as puffins. Just west, the Dyrhólaey peninsula has a large rock arch.

It was pouring down the day I visited, but that just makes the black beach and basalt pillars stand out. What a place!

Church!
