My last full day on Iceland

My last day is providing a mix of the weather I’ve experienced here. The morning was sunny, still, and pleasant enough for me to eat my breakfast sitting outside. The afternoon has brought heavy rain and wind.

Actually, I’ve had much more of the rain and wind than the sun, so it was nice to have experienced at least one calm sunny morning.

Luckily, I’ve spent my afternoon in a campsite with very few other campers and a nice common room that I’ve had to myself. I’ve been practicing ukulele, reading, watching the Danish news, and otherwise relaxing.

I must get up at before 6am tomorrow to ensure that I make it to the ferry in time to check in between 7-9am. I don’t expect much traffic, but the route is often under dense fog and that slows me down. I’m planning to eat breakfast once I’ve checked in. I’ve learned to boil water and store it in my coffee thermos, then add to a breakfast bag when I reach a good breakfast spot.

Many may consider waiting in line for a ferry to be an unappealing spot for breakfast, but I’ll have time to kill, and I’ll feel much less stress once I know I’ve made it on time. So I expect to enjoy it there.

I’ll be eating my last breakfast bag, so my plan matched my needs perfectly. I still have about 10 lunch/dinner bags left (I’m getting tired of them, I’ll admit!). So I may have bought a bit too much, but then, the Danish government recently warned its citizens to have rations on hand for at least 3 days, in case of emergency, and the bags expire first in 2028, so these excess bags will meet that requirement.
