Akureyri, Iceland

We have now crossed the arctic circle and then dipped 60 miles south down a long fjord to Akureyri, on the north side of Iceland.
The local church...


The climate in this area is one of the warmest on Iceland as the area is well protected by the Fjord and surrounding hills or mountains....they are very proud of their botanical gardens...



It is here that we see our first signs of fall...



Akureyri is the second largest city in Iceland, with a population of 17,000.
