To Holar

We took a day trip to Holar University, an agricultural school.  Here are some photos of our trip up there.

 I had to run in the Arctic Ocean - It was extremely cold.  I think it's technically the Norwegian Sea

Wandering Around Iceland

Some photos of use touring Iceland with Mom as our guide.  The first batch is form snaefellsnes, the western peninsula of Iceland.  Others, such as the fortress are further east from Bifrost.  And there are some from the western coast on our way to snaefellsnes.

Stadarhus

In 2010, Sarah and I visited my mom in Iceland.  Here are some photos from Stadarhus, the farm that now houses a country hotel near Borganes that is the base camp for horse treks and day rides.  If you're interested in having a horse trekking adventure with instruction from Icelandic Horse Masters check out America 2 Iceland on Facebook.
