Driving from Holmavik to Isafjordur. Fjords are BEAUTIFUL!! Waterfalls EVERYWHERE!! These pictures simply can't do them justice. This was such a remote area, I saw under 10 other cars in my 4.5 hour drive. In fact, on that note, the drive is only suppose to take 3 hours, but the scenery was so beautiful I kept driving slower and slower to look at it all and "take it all in"... Not to mention stopping a lot to take pictures... I literally wanted to stop at every waterfall, but there were so many! At least 100 little random waterfalls on this 4.5 hour drive. So incredible!!!

Hómavík is a charming little town at the southern base of the Westfjords. Here there is a small museum dedicated to the history of Icelandic sorcery and witchcraft, which at ISK 900 (about $8 USD) per person, is definitely worth a visit. #TroverDetour
