This year we stayed in Húsavik, a small and peaceful town a few degrees south of the polar circle.
It lies on the east shore of Skjálfandi bay, which allows for nice sunsets (unless it is too cloudy (often) or not cloudy enough (rarely).
Dramatic clouds are abundant and make driving dangerous.
A highlight was the full moon backlit with a setting sun at midnight.
