Øivind, I can only say that you are welcome.
The tent is an evolutionary result of more than 3 decades of camping experience.
The final decision to that investment has been pushed by some gale wind experience on the Lofoten Islands with a less capable construction.
It is a truly solid tool, serving us more than well since 4 years,
Therein 3 longer tours in the northern hemispere (Iceland/Norway/Finland) which all took us north of the arctic circle.
Admittedly we still  miss but long for some winter experience.
In Iceland weather more than once we were happy to have it. Very reliable.
You seem to have an eye for quality ::) 

Day 18 was spectacular indeed!

Presenting them helps sorting out the lesser ones. Easy to live through the voyage again by that. Fun, expecially when you like them ;D

That private jet shot is wonderful, like a William Turner in Airplane times...
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

Beautifull detailed Iceland -report, Thomas. A unique document, this way.   From your last days I like the plane and the church very much.

Hallo Thomas,

vielen Dank für Deine Antwort-
pleased for your answer-

Yeahhh- our planning : visiting Iceland within the next 2-3 Years.
We hadn`t enough time for traveling the last decennia ( because of profession ),
but further on we would like to see as much as possible
from the world for the rest of our living.

Your story about Iceland is really great, with fabulous pictures!   8)
Did you publish other stories and pictures on a home page ?

greets ,

Thank you, Jœrgen. I'm pleased that you spent the time to look at my pictures.
These are nice plans of yours. Iceland is amongst the most impressive places I have been to.
It is certainly amongst those worth going again.

I did not publish a successional travel story like this before. All new to me.
It's just that the idea exisited since I acquired a camera for travel documentation a few years ago.
If you like: there are a few more examples of my work on my flickr.
