The Beautiful North


Not much need for written comment in this post. A heavy fall of snow and plenty of sunshine have provided us with beauty and fun this month.














Horses are not taken in during winter and are not provided with blankets. Instead they are protected by a beautiful thick, insulating coat.



Melrakkaslétta

Melrakkaslétta has Iceland's most Northerly coastline, most Northerly house (now abandoned) and most Northerly lighthouse. Above, what was, until recently, Iceland's most Northerly lost sheep is being rescued.
