There are these little roadside parks sponsored by, among others, Shell Oil, all throughout Iceland. I stopped at this one on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula to look at my map and consider my options.
My plucky little Toyota Yaris in the middle of nowhere with the mountains looming behind.
On my way to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, I took a wrong turn at Borgarnes and ended up outside Haugar. At least it provided for some wonderful photos.

After the tunnel, I passed through a great deal of beautiful countryside with scattered farms.
And VERY few cars. Great roads but also annoying speed cameras.
The sea meets the land.
