Finally...

... the long waiting had an end and Aurelia's Freyja got her foal. Looks like she was really lucky and Farsæll did his best to give as much colour as possible. The foal is a yellow dun pinto with a huge star, a snip and a white chin. It looks nearly the same on both sides, such a cute little thing. As far as we could see yesterday, it's a little lady, but we are going to check that better today.

What else have we been doing... Well, guess what, we've been backing! Bread, a cake and another kransakaka. I like how different kransakaka can be and there's no limit to your creativity. And of course I like the taste!
In the afternoon we were in Hólmavað, where we took care of the sheep while Bensi and his family attended 2 celebrations. There was not too much to do, looks like the sheep waited for their owner to be back. At least 2 of them gave birth to 2 lambs each, all of them white and halfsibblings. We had to help one of them a bit as her little son had so big horns and it was difficult to get him out. The other one just did everything on her own.

Ingólfur used the time to go fishing and was lucky. He got a big (50cm) trout and was really proud. Looking forward to eat it.
