Siglufjördur


Today was a short trip on the free bus to the larger town, Siglufjördur, which merged with Ólafsfjördur to create the joint municipality of Fjallabyggö. The bus goes through another long tunnel, which was only opened in 2010, to arrive into the town.
It has less than half of its peak number of inhabitants, which has been decreasing since the 50´s. It has the look and feel of a place worn down but seems to have more to attract tourists than Ólafsfjördur.


The mountains like that of Ólafsfjördur, have this colour from green to purple and blue contrasted by the white of the snow.
