Iceland Saga VII
Constance really enjoyed looking at the plants in Iceland. Several Icelanders told us this joke: If you are lost in the forest in Iceland, just stand up! This picture shows Constance in a Birch forest near Hoffelsjökull.
There are a few wooded areas where the sheep haven’t shortened the forest…this one is in Þórsmörk, a lovely valley that several Icelanders told us was the most beautiful place in Iceland.

This was probably Constance and Min’s favourite moment on the Sveinstindur Hike!
.
Constance sat here a while. She loved the small scale of the plants in Iceland.

She also liked the view from this particular clump of flowers – it was at the edge of a cliff next to the snout of Hoffelsjökull, near the town of Höfn.

Min Thinks Cotton Grass is the best plant ever!

Absolutely breathtaking – What lucky little girls to have such an adventure.
The blueberries were especially memorable, coming at the end of the last day of a long trek! They feel very lucky!
Such amazing views, a wonderful time was had indeed.
They have many never-to-be-forgotten memories!
These are all great photos, but the last one is my favourite – its as if the plants have trapped some low flying clouds and are holding them up in the wind for fun.
And Min bemused. I am glad you are enjoying the adventure!
…and just when I think I’ve found the Cornucopia of this series, you deliver another wonderful installment! Wow, what a breathtaking place, we simply must visit it ourselves one day!
I don’t think you would regret it if you do get there! Lots to see and do.
OOoooo…I love the cotton grass as well. What a fabulous picture among many, many fabulous pictures!
Thanks! I think that picture is my very favourite one of them all.
Min in the Cotton Grass is wonderful. Great shot.
Min is hoping I can figure a way out for her to visit the cotton grass again…She thinks she might be able to learn to speak with them…
All along when my family said I was stubborn as a mule, I was really thinking more like a baby goat (you and I are like peas in a pod Qimper Hitty). Although my dolls have never visited Iceland, they sneak into many of my sewing and millinery photos. I love the variety of your Hittys, and most of all their great sweaters! Beautiful photography!
Well Hello! Nice to have you visiting my blog, and thank you very much for your kind comments…Your dolls may yet lure you to Iceland!
