Varmahlíð  -  2015

Varmahlíð is a small village in northern Iceland.
Varmahlíð is in the middle of a flourishing agricultural area, where the Icelandic horse has been treasured for centuries.
One of the main industries is horse-rearing.

Horse shoes, instead of sweets, at the supermarket check-out!!

My 71st birthday.













A number of the horses are allowed to roam free.
They round them up at certain times of the year and these pens are used to sort them out for their owners.
We also saw smaller pens for sheep.
They look like part of a scrabble game!
