July 5

For our third day, things looked a little wet as we headed out of Fossnes Farm so we donned our tour-supplied raingear.  

But in fact the morning was nice, just a little windy, as we saw when we stopped to change horses. For the most part we rode one horse and led the spare.

In the afternoon, things got wetter. Undeterred, we visited Gulfoss, a famous waterfall. It was so damp that I didn’t take the camera out of its plastic bag. Nice special effects, actually.

Here we are in the visitors' center with our Spanish friend, Cristina. The only other language she spoke was French so we three roomed together. 

Not too make too much out of the troubles of the day, but at the end of it even Helena, our guide,  said she had never been so dirty and wet. I guess she figured the barn was so soaked it was safe to smoke there.
