Vijftig tinten groen.... Onze reis door IJsland, dag 4: wegnummer 839.
Na drie dagen reizen vonden we dat we wel een dag rust verdiend hadden, dus we sliepen uit, en wilden deze dag gebruiken om een fjord te bezoeken, als dat zou lukken, want de weg die wij wilden volgen had wat rivieroversteekjes, zo hadden we gelezen.
We huren altijd een 4x4 auto, maar niet iedere 4x4 is geschikt om rivieroversteken te doen, en wij zijn er niet in getraind (bucketlist-puntje: cursus rivercrossing!).
Het is goed om te weten dat, hoe goed je je auto ook verzekerd, je nooit verzekerd bent voor schade die veroorzaakt wordt door rivieroversteken!
Wanneer de rivier die je oversteekt te diep is, of je scheurt er te hard doorheen, kan er water in de motor komen, en dan sta je stil.
In, of net na de rivier....

Cool to ride through a river like that. nice trip.😊
@Mevrouw Stip. luckily it wasn't very deep, but it does feel cool ☺️
Quite an adventure, I think: crossing rivers, escaping horses. Nice trip !
@enigma rivers, 50 cm deep at most, but still. luscious!
Oh dear, I don't have to think that suddenly there's a deep pit in such a river, I would probably have sat with my eyes pinched next to my husband at this crossing.
@The Creative Bumblebea that's why we always check in advance what the surface looks like. We've seen cars dive quite a bit. and decided not to cross.
well, those horses weren't even allowed to wash the whole car. Not surprising that they look so troubled.
it looked like a breeze crossing the river. Am I watching that silent video, well it had to be nice, a 2nd x, a moped or something came along with a lot of noise at that time?. Those roads reminded me of Namibia, we also found those nice ones, but we didn't have a 4x4. Fred was always allowed to get behind the wheel. Nice blog!!
@marijke you will always see. broken the silence for a moment. So Fred is just as bad as me.? 😂
So the car wash is in car damage repair;)
How wonderful those horses for your car. Just not handy, no.
@Kinderworkshops Petra well, luckily I'm not afraid of them, and they (reluctantly) stepped aside.
Nice those horses :-)
