- Hello and welcome to the 10th episode of the 4th season of Adventure Now!
In this episode we have a look around Mark's second most favourite capital city in the world so far - Reykjavik! We enjoy a tour of the only whisky distillery in Iceland - Eimverk Distillery, courtesy of Brynjark Karlsson. Thank you very much. We enjoyed Floki whisky!
We have a look around the capital early on a Sunday morning. We enjoy some great food, visit the famous concert hall, called Harpa, and having done what we set out to do, on a spur of the moment we decide to depart. We had for Grindavik, a fishing port on the very exposed south coast. We arrive in the dark but manage to find a nice pontoon with power where we moor safely for the next couple of days. A walk around the town and the coast reveals how ferocious the surrounding ocean can be. The harbour street is decorated with spectacular photographs of trawlers approaching the harbour in incredibly stormy conditions and the rocky shore along the path to the lighthouse is littered with wrecked trawlers, torn to pieces by the sea.
After a few days we set out in the afternoon for the Westman Islands (Vestmannaeyjar) and sail through the night, enjoying a spectacular sunset, moonlit night sky and a beautiful sun rise. The Westman Islands welcome us with astounding views and spectacular rock formations. We sail into the harbour on the largest island, Heimaey, through a narrow entrance that nearly got closed by a volcanic eruption in 1973. However more about the Westman Islands in the next episode of Adventure Now :)

Mark Asha, what a fantastic trip and what a harbour entrance !!! regardless of the place , we always find time to brew whisky !! The VEGVISIR Compass is paint on both sides of my yacht's bow. And now I can see is also good for malt whisky !! Fair winds and cheers from Muros !!!
Hi Jesus 🙃 Thanks so much for watching, and as always - great to hear from you. The tour guide in the whisky distillery explained about the compass that it wasn't exactly a scientific instrument and rather relied on the viking's faith, so if they made a round tip safely - that meant the compass worked well, if not, then there wasn't enough faith 🤪 Hope it serves you well and you alway get to the port you want safe and sound 🙏🏻♥ Sending our best from the Land of Plenty 🥃 Asha & Mark
Another fun and interesting film. Thank you guys. Keep them coming.
Thanks so much, Chris 🙃
Another great video by you two keep it up ❤
Hi Brian 🙃 Thanks so much for watching, as always, we are very happy to hear that you've enjoyed the video! All the best 🤗 Asha & Mark
Amazing as always. Thank you.
Thanks so much, Kevin 🙃
Another brilliant video. Thanks. Always look forward to your videos 😁😁👍👍
Thank you much. So pleased you enjoyed it. Hope you are both well 😃
Nice one guys.
Thank you, Mike 🤗
Wont be long to you hit 5,000 Subscribers great stuff guy's
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 although someone just announced they will never watch Adventure Now again for giving God credit for creating this Earth 😂 Thanks so much for watching and see you soon in Largs (we are just mucking around the Kyles of Bute, checking every inch of the sea bed if it is good for anchoring 😉)
Hi Mark and Asha . It's Jim the taxi driver from Greenock Scotland. I took you from inverkip marina to largs marina and back. What a nice couple. It was a pleasure having the two of you in my taxi. I've enjoyed your videos and will keep following your adventures. Safe sailing to both of you
Hello Jim. Thank you for getting in touch and for watching. We are really pleased you enjoy the channel. Thank you for the lift the other day and good luck with your boat! Asha and Mark
Brings back very recent memories! Great Video.........didnt try the whiskey but the gin was exceptional. 😉
Hi Bill 🙃 I have to admit (Asha) that for me Scottish whisky wins hands down, some Islay single malt are just divine. We are coming back to Largs in a couple of days, so hopefully we'll see you there! 🤗
@@AdventureNow Aberdeen this weekend for the World Mixed Curling should be in Largs later next week. Volo is on the hard for maintenance and Survey.
Look forward to seeing you both and hear tales of your adventures over a dram.
Hello Mark and Asha. With all the futile craziness going on in the Ukraine and now the Middle East, I find particular solace in watching your channel.( In a nice way) I highly envy your lifestyle and it inspires me to challenge my own. Thanks🤗
Hello Brian. Thank you. That’s a lovely comment to receive. I’m glad you find solace with us and good luck with your adventures! Asha and Mark
So bizarre to hear that you had not seen darkness since Essex. Nights are closing in big time here. Look forward to seeing you in Burnham
Hi Chris 🙃 Thanks so much for watching and it's great to hear from you, as always! The footage was taken in August, so now that we are past the autumn Equinox, the evenings are getting long. We are holding on to the cruising mode for our dear lives and still mucking around the Clyde and Kyles of Bute, but I think this is the last weekend at anchor for us and we are going to Largs Yacht Haven on Monday or Tuesday, and back to Burnham end of October. Look forward to seeing you when we get back!
Lovely to see you met up with Andrew on Anabel J.
Those tots were tiny! I'd be asking for a refund.
Sandy
I dont really like beating about the bush but at 19.05 that looked like a huge KNOB !!!!!
Agreed 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Must try that whisky, was it smooth ? Yet another good vid
I think I can say it for both of us - Scottish whisky wins hands down. It was nice to try though. Thanks so much for watching 🙃
"We all know that god created this earth". Oh dear, bye bye. Unsubscribed.
Thank you for watching Rob and for getting in touch. As it’s not mentioned anywhere else, I can only assume that on the seventh day, along with resting, God also created the unsubscribe button so you must be grateful for that! Peace, love and all the very best to you and your family. Amen / Out 😃🙏
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.
