It's sailors' weekend in Iceland! Tomorrow will be Sailors' Day and there's usually a lot going on around harbourvillages and towns, like rowing competitions, relay races and trips on the sea. We were invited by Hulda and Jói to join them on Jói's boat Sóley ÞH28. Just after we departed, Hulda's phone rang and Jói took a u-turn back to the pier as we forgot to take Benedikt on board. Now complete we headed out on Skjálfandaflót into the fog. It was mystical to see the Schooner Haukur and other ships appearing from the fog. The guys from the rescue team definitely had fun on their zodiac boat rushing back and front, stopping to get some chocolate bars at Sóley and then keeping on.
After the trip we went to visit Hjördís at the bakery as she got herself a summerjob there. She was very busy and had hardly time to talk to us. That's the way it should be.
And then we already could hear the helicopter of the Icelandic Coastguard, which was paying a visit, showing searescue in collaboration with our local rescueteam Garðar. It was very impressive to watch the helicopter TF-GNA so close and get some nice shots.
Hjördís and her cousin Thelma joined us to check out the horses and were definitely the most interesting humans when we arrived as they had a big bag of bread.
In the evening we were invited to the Sailors's Dinner and Show. Lára Sóley and Hjalti were responsible for the entertainment and did a really good job, eventhough some guests didn't pay attention at all and indeed did disturb the show massively. 
Takk fyrir okkur, it was a wonderful day!
