Otto Wathne trained as a sea captain in England and sailed for 10 years as a helmsman and sea captain on an English ship. He then started a fishing business in Iceland and shipping between Iceland, Norway and Denmark. His brothers Herman, Tønnes, Frederik and Carl, were eventually drawn into the business, Herman and Tønnes also as sea captains. Otto died in 1898. His brothers continued the business until 1931, interrupted by World War I.

When I arrived on the Norröna early April this year, Seydisfjordur was expecting us eagerly, because they had about a meter of snow and the passage across the mountains had been closed for about a week. But the sun was shining at -8 C and everything looked beautiful. Of course I never saw the nice footpath you walked on and all the waterfalls in the surrounding area were frozen. Because of the passengers and lorries with goods on Norröna, the people worked from both sides of the mountains to clear the snow off the road and this was why the people of this small place were very happy to have us!

The area in the beginning, where you were reaching the end of town, used to have a lot more houses. On December 18th, after a years worth of rain came down in the matter of days, a large mudflood came down the mountain side and took out several houses, witch more damaged beyond repair or in a danger zone, which means houses are no longer allowed in that section. Thankfully, nobody got hurt, which is nothing short of a miracle. The Bíó is indeed a cinema, A library is bókasafn, which directly translates to book collection.

That was a great series. He missed a couple of things in the video though (was preoccupied with finding that bus stop LOL!) He walked past the the Hotel and restaurant Adlon that featured in the film Walter Mitty (and infact that road Steve showed leaving out of Seydisfjordur is the one Mitty skates down into the village). The other very surprising omission was the fantastic bar Kafi Lara El Grillo often with live music and it's own local brew El Grillo named after the WW2 merchant ship El Grillo sunk in the fjord. Not like Steve to miss a good chance to partake in a local beer! I am glad he didn't decide to try and walk the 25km to Egillstadir given the big walk up to the plateau the road goes over to get to the latter township and airport and secondly that plateau is a glacier so snow and ice laden. Not the conditions to be walking on IMO! (having said that I have thumbed rides in Iceland in freezing temps, but not there and thankfully not for a long period before being picked up!)

It's a lovely little place to mooch around (Or walk and cycle out along the fjord as I also did). As Steve alluded to quite an arty and creative place and with Hotel and restaurant Adlon and the nice cosy Kafi Lara El Grillo bar a couple of good places for food and drink and to chill out in as well. Not sure if still open, but when I was there 2nd time in 2015 there was a great little pizzeria owned by an Italian guy who had got out of the rat race in Italy and relocated to Seydisfjordur. He did a great Reindeer meat pizza which went down a treat on the same kind of chilly drizzly day as Steve had in town. Reindeer pizza - that should bring back some memories for you Steve of your Artic trips from the past couple of years LOL. The video I think also shows the real importance of the Norrona ferry to the continued existence and prosperity of the village. A few years ago it was reported that there was an investigation to move the ferry to a town in one of the other fjords and there was a real anxiety over the town's future if that happened. Happily it didn't.

The red double story house with the white trim around 4.40 and again in the background around the 4.56 mark… my husband grew up in that house and got confirmed in the church you visited. ❤🇮🇸

I think it’s the Icelandic version of Invergordon…

I like the way you speak english mate, your accent in other words. It reminds me the people of my little village Scotstown, a scottish enclave in Canada. Thanks for this nice share. I like your manners.

According to my European Rail Timetable (Table 729) there are bus services around Iceland. If you catch the 10.00am bus that connects with the ferry at Seydisfjödur and change at Egilsstadir and Akureyri you can make it to Reykjavik by 22:43.

The letter d with a stroke through it is pronounced " th " . Great video and it shows the benefit of contactless payments . You're in a remote Icelandic town with no Krona and you can still get something to eat !

This is a very quaint town, and also home to one of the most mainstream festivals in iceland, Lunga is hosted every year in this town, and prior to the avalanche that happened in 2019 (?), was on the right side of the town next to the docks. The Lunga festival is Primarily hosted from the Arts school -- Its truly out of this world. 8:49 is where some musicians have their choreographed performances, moshing in there is surreal.

For the record, I do not like cliffhangers. But, I love your videos and will just have to wait til next Saturday. Beautiful views of Iceland! As always, thank you for your work, and walking in the rain.
