Day 14: Djúpivogur to Höfn
13/07/19 21:00 Iceland
We get up an hour early as we have more than 100 km ahead of us.
After only 13 km we arrive at a guest house with a free charger. This is too early but we will need to charge today wherever it is possible.
The short road to the guest house is unpaved which is enough to mess up the trailer and parts of the Twizy.
Iceland-Patina
We charge the Twizy to 100% as we need to cover 60 km. This should be feasible.
Short stop …
… to watch some sheep
At the beginning the remaining distance calculated by the Twizy is higher than what Google Earth tells us. But after some stops and detours we were not sure if we could make it.
Fauskasandur
We stopped at a farm house but unfortunately no one was at home. A few kilometers later another farmhouse came by, we stopped, asked and were allowed to charge. We spent around 45 minutes there before we headed to our initially planned charging stop at a hostel. We had a longer stop there. I sat on the gras in the sun, Lars was sitting in the Twizy, reading.
Icelandic people are really nice and helpful!
In Höfn we planned to cook instead of having fast food again. Unfortunately the kitchen turned our to be a tiny kitchenette. We bought some Tortellini and instant tomato sauce. The latter was not a good choice.
Another really long day tomorrow. We need to camp and carry all food with us as there is no possibility for shopping groceries or to have fast food.
