"So I have seen Iceland at last"

This blog is a selection of reflections from a trip to Iceland in August 2016. I'm going to link them up with William Morris's travel journals from his own trips to Iceland in 1871 and 1873.

It's a follow-on of sorts from a walk we did between two of Morris's homes: Kelmscott House in Hammersmith and Kelmscott Manor in Oxfordshire. My write up for that walk has slowed pace, though I''ll return to it soon.

I wanted to write about this Icelandic trip while it's still fresh; while I can still picture the clouds over mountains that looked killer whales and hear the looping whirl of the Great Northern Diver's call.
