This morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the sea was typical Icelandic. But of course, this did not stop us! We braved the elements of Faxaflói bay, and we were ready for some wildlife. While searching for the whales, dolphins and porpoises, we saw some beautiful birdlife. We saw Arctic terns, northern fulmars and Atlantic puffins! The sight of the cute birds kept our spirits high while our search went on. In the distance we spotted something. It was a blow of a humpback whale! We saw several blows, before it went down for a deeper dive. Because this animal was taking quite a long dive, we kept our eyes peeled in all directions. Suddenly we something else! The jumps of white-beaked dolphins! We came quite close to them and they showed us some nice jumps. After some time with these animals, it was time to go back. On the way back we still could enjoy some morning sun.
