Don't Panic

We were here.....



otherwise referred to as here.... (note the red arrow, picture taken earlier in the day)



When a 6.1 scale earthquake hit near the town of Selfoss, only about 50 Km away. We certainly felt it up there on the platform!

Afterwards, the nice lady in the visitor centre wouldn't let us go back down the walkway on the continental divide for fear of falling rocks.



Our hotel is at the bottom. One of the Reykjavik Excursions tour buses gave us a lift back down via the roads that don't go through big rocks.

We're a little shaken, but not stirred.
