1. Here arrives the ferry that connects Denmark to Iceland, serving the Faroes.
 

 
 
2. Barely moored as the rear port opens to let out the arrivals before VivaLaVida embarks…
 

 
 
3. Honeymoon on the boarding park! 😉 I will meet the owners of this beautiful Land Cruiser, Kambiz and Filiz, aboard and meet them several times in Iceland.
 

 
 
4. From Tornhavn to Iceland, the ferry passes between the islands of the archipelago.
 

 
 
5. So I went in front of Gjógv again, off the coast this time.
 

 
 
6. Last look before the high seas.
 

 
 
7. The next morning, arrival at Seydisfjordúr, a fjord all teh way East of Iceland. The weather is rainy.
 

 
 
8. En route to pick up my family at the airport in Reykjavik, at the other end of the island or more than 500 miles away, VivaLaVida is quickly in the Highlands that fall colors have already yellowed.
 

 
 
9. These highlands are covered by a few roads or tracks.
 

 
 
10. Ambiance.
 

 
 
11. Canyon.
 

 
 
12. Rain showers.
 

 
 
13. Volcanic geology is omnipresent.
 

 
 
14. Here, water has no choice but to run on soils that are mostly free of all humus.
 

 
 
15. Perspectives are immense.
 

 
 
16. I find by chance Kambiz and Filiz on the track, in front of their first serious river ford, waiting for a vehicle to pass and show them the way. VivalaVida passes and I make some souvenir pictures.
 

 
 
17. Powerfull river carving its way in the basalt.
 

 
 
18. VLV crossing a lava field.
 

 
 
19. Natural pool shortly before night stop…
 

 
 
Well, that’s what I though. By switching on the freshly revised VLV heater, the dashboard displays an error code: defective hot air fan which has just been replaced pre-emptively in Switzerland. It is Thursday night, Isabelle and Emile arrive on Saturday and the only place I can repair is Reykjavik, 500 miles away. I decided to drive at night to be in Reykjavik on Friday. 400 miles until around 3am where I take a 4 hour nap. Arrived Friday morning in Reykjavik, I bring the heating to the Webasto dealer after 2:30 of work to get it out since it is well hidden under the rear cabinet of VLV. The technician discovers that during the work in Switzerland, a wiring harness has not been well attached and is hindering the movement of the fan. After a bill of more than 1’600.- Swiss francs, I was not very happy. But at least, the heating works for the arrival of my passengers tomorrow!
 
Soon to be followed.
