The ship arrived in Djupivogur, located on the peninsula of the Austurland region, to windy and cool conditions. It made for a sporty Zodiac ride to the dock to start the day’s activities. The first group departed for the glacier lagoon tour. They finished nearly 13 hours later at a new location. Wow!
Due to the increased wind as the day continued, the road closed and the buses were not able to return to the same harbor. Plan B, C, and D were implemented, and the group had a true expedition exploring new places beyond the original glacier. They arrived safely back on the ship full of stories and ready for the nightly entertainment performed by the crew’s one and only Spice Boys band.
The guests that stayed in town, enjoyed a breezy black sand beach walk while others experienced the back roads in 4X4 jeeps.
It was a wet and spicy Zodiac ride back to the ship where hot drinks and warm showers were the afternoon activity while the ship relocated to retrieve the bus tour guests. Recap and cocktail hour conversations were full of stories of being on a true expedition ship.
