Day 30: Mývatn to Skjöldólfsstaðir
29/07/19 22:00 Iceland
The sun is shining, it's quite warm and almost windstill. Ideal for today's tour! We have to cover 111 km without the possibility to charge at an outlet.
We get up early and start earlier than planned. After only 5 km and 10% less battery we charge at the last charger at Mývatn Nature Bath before the wasteland begins.
The swimming pool is still closed and we wait for the cafe to open. We get a coffee.
Fully charged we head east. it's around 27° Celsius in the Twizy and we are sweating!
After 45 km we stop at a sightseeing point and use the generator to charge the car. The generator whirs, it is still really hot and we are in a really good mood because everything seem to work out well.

We charge for around 100 minutes and head eastwards again. The next rest area is 37 km away at the junction to Vopnafjörður. The landscape is really beautiful!
It is cloudy. We charge with the generator for 120 minutes and it is getting quite chilly. Lars is reading in the Twizy while I try to keep warm outside.
30 km to go to the guest house in Skjöldólfsstaðir. This is also the first gas station since Reykjahlíð.
The guest house is quite basic but it's ok for a night. There are only 2 toilets and one shower for eight rooms and we decide to head for the swimming pool in Egilsstaðir first thing tomorrow morning.
We have the usual burger with fries in the attached restaurant.
