This museum is so far my favourite thing in Iceland - and believe me I love Iceland. I made a special trip as I knew I must see this museum (I couldnt visit my first drive past but terrible weather meant I unexpectedly came back this way.) The *wonderful* lady who owns it knew I hadn't managed to visit on my earlier drive past, opened it specially for me. She told me all about the fortune telling styles she and her colleagues used in specially and beautifully designed rooms (get a reading if you get the chance, I couldnt as the storm was fast on my heels and I needed to keep driving, I know I will regret it until I can come back!) I heard the stories of the original seer and the methods used by her and other Icelandic practitioners. A rare female icon of the sagas. The proprietor was funny and informative and I wish I had been able to spend much more time there. It's in a gorgeous nook of Iceland, watch out for key baring ravens and give finding the lost treasure a try :).

An easy hike around the lip of the Viti crater, with its beautiful blue crater lake and steaming geothermal pipelines nearby. Don't be surprised if you suddenly feel like you are in the middle of a spy movie, seeking out the villain's lair! Take note: the trail will likely be muddy - REALLY muddy - so don't wear your good shoes. They will be caked in mud by the end of the hike! This is a good hike for all ages and skill levels, with no steep climbs or difficult terrain to navigate. Just follow the trampled path around the crater and back to the parking lot. Note that there are no services provided at this site.

Loved all of the traffic lights in Akureyri! Where else do you wish for a red light? We were told they were added in Iceland's economic downturn 2008 -2011 as a small way to cheer the citizens of Alkureyri. They sure made me smile!
