Coast next to the Osar youth hostel in North Iceland in June 1997, on the black peninsula there were many sea lions, the black dots on the shore are some, but most were lying lazily on the shore, their favorite activity, as the host said. I was walking down to the shore when I was attacked by birds nesting on the meadow; they struck my head with their wings. Also, I almost stumbled over a nesting greylag goose on the path.

Youth hostel Osar on the north coast of Iceland in June 1997, in Iceland some youth hostels are located on farms, I know two. Here is the old farmhouse youth hostel, the new one, a modern bungalow, stands a little apart. Just like in Scandinavia, all age groups can stay there, hotels are expensive.

Great Geysir, only 20 m from Strokkur, in June 1997. The geyser was formed during an earthquake in 1294 and was active until 1915, then again after an earthquake in 1935 until the 1950s, and now again from 2000 to the present. However, it only erupts a few times daily with a fountain of about 10 meters. In 1997, it was just a small pool with a water temperature of 60 degrees. All geysers in the world have their name derived from this geyser.

Geysir Strokkur (Eng. Butter Churn), about 70 km east of Reykjavik, in June 1997, one of the one or two small eruptions after the big one, then there is about 10 minutes of calm again. Here you can clearly see why it is important to position yourself on the right side.

Geysir Strokkur in June 1997, now the eruption is imminent, it is advisable to increase the distance slightly, the water reaches a temperature of about 130 degrees during the eruption.

Geysir Strokkur (aka Butter Churn) about 70 km east of Reykjavik in June 1997. After an eruption, you initially see nothing, then water rises high, disappears again, this happens a few times, with the water rising a bit higher each time. By paying attention to the wind direction, you can get quite close.
