Plenty rain and fog coming around the point and into the fjord, and I am thinking that it is really far better to visit these parts in wet weather. After all, one can purchase postcards of postcard-perfect views of green mountainsides and heiðskýrt heavens in every little place one stops for gas, coffee, and chemical-tasting candy. One never sees pictures of the landscape in rain, only sunshine, and that is rather like looking at pictures of professionally made-up people who all claim in the attached self-descriptions to be "upbeat," "have a good sense of humor," and "like having fun."
To see landscape any other way, to see it when it isn't being hresst og skemmtilegt, one has to be there. And isn't that the question, anyway, what it is like when the weather is not so fair? What it looks like after a restless night? Where do the clouds form? Where does the road get slick and dangerous? Does the ground fog pile up into unexpected and beautiful shapes? Where? Does the fading light slice though it all, striking a peak, a high snowfield, a falling beck, blinding you, making you suck in your breath?
