The secret waterfall hike and dark tourism at Kárahnjúkar Dam (almost)
Day 6: Waterfall hikes, Seyðisfjörður, and the start of the Horror Road
Hi lovely people, it has been so long, I know. But here is the next episode from our 2021 summer ring road trip. This is the other half of the recording from the Google Horror road where we talk about day number 6.
waking up at www.booking.com/hotel/is/blabjorg-guesthouse.de.html?auth_success=1 (Blábjörg Guesthouse) and getting an early breakfast
Visiting the small harbor - www.borgarfjordureystri.is/en/puffins/the-marina (called the Marina) to look at Puffins
Alli had to visit the 60s diner - www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g315847-d14138442-r605425433-Skalinn_Diner-Egilsstadir_East_Region.html (Skalinn Diner)
Skipping Hengifoss and taking the 8km amazinghttps://laugarfell.is/activities/hiking-trails/ ( three waterfall hike around Laugarfell)
Visiting the www.hengifoss.is/en/service/hengifoss-food-truck (Foodtruck at Hengifoss) to taste the all advertised goat/ sheep milk icecream
On the way back we went to Seyðisfjörður and had dinner at the www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g189972-d10834923-Reviews-Nordic_Restaurant-Seydisfjordur_East_Region.html (Nordic Restaurant)
Then we entered the Horror Road - here is a link to the horror road, the one that takes you closer to the ocean: goo.gl/maps/M11KTY9KVr1Lhso88 (https://goo.gl/maps/M11KTY9KVr1Lhso88)
nvdatabase.swarthmore.edu/content/icelanders-protest-karahnjukar-hydropower-project-2000-2006 (Kárahnjúkar Dam) is an extremely controversial project that despite international protest with the support of several musicians and well-known artists was constructed, flooding a natural reserve and causing damage to aquatic life, destruction of habitat, especially breeding grounds and migration routes - all for the sake of profit for an American aluminum smelting company.

Things you did not know about Iceland
The ban on alcoholic beverages, strict shower rules, and how the president of Iceland addressed the nation after collection rubbish around his estate: all these are topics we talk about in this week's episode.
Things are done differently by the people inhabiting the small island in the North Atlantic Ocean. Icelanders don't joke around if it comes to their swimming pool culture. And what is best after a long soak in the hot tub? Right, ice cream. But most people in Iceland don't go for gelato; they roam into the local ice cream stores at midnight to buy the popular flavor-fox.
Icelanders are generally relaxed, but when high profile visitor Mike Pence comes to Iceland, even the mayor of Reykjavík gets into trouble passing the head of security. Learn this and much more facts you did not know about Iceland.
