Today an expensive trip to the capital of the North, Akureyri. A small town of just over 17,000, also has its history in the fishing industry, having a good natural harbour and better weather giving it an ice-free port. I asked the caretaker of the house we are staying in yesterday about the snow they get in the winter - he replied that once, the front door was closed due to a snow drift from November to April. So I suppose an ice-free port is a real bonus.
