Hveragerði

I visited the town Hveragerði, known for its geothermal hot springs and fumaroles, but a sudden heavy rain shower had me soaking wet so I cut that visit short.

Which was a bit of a pity because I liked Hveragerði much, it has the special atmosphere of a spa town, das Flair eines Kurorts.

Jóhann told me a few hours later that in Iceland, a rain that falls vertical is not considered "heavy rain". The rain that comes horizontally is.
