A small village, but a huge fish festival. The day before all the streets were full of people in all ages crawling from one house to the next to get a fish-soup. On the next day the great fish festival – free fish in every way of preparation – even fish icecream! http://www.fiskidagur.muna.is

Right before a really nice guesthouse Refsstaður II near Vopnafjörður. Visit Cathy and have really nice stay there. http://www.underthemountain.is
this Ristarhlið before Máná (on road 85) got a nice resonance frequency. the first drive-over is the old saab. recorded right before the Mánárbakki Museum, which we did not see.
