beginning of the way back

Bacon and fried bread in the morning. B&B stands here for bacon and beer.
Then packing up the camp and at 10 we leave as planned. A half-circle around the island, Beerenberg smiling through the clouds. Seems unbelievable that I've stood up there.
The island vanishes behind the curve of Earth, Iceland waits ahead. Time to readjust to swaying mode.
A lot of things I didn't see, like the lava caves, plane wreck or hidden hotel but then there were enough me-and-the-island-moments for being content. The adventure of climbing Beerenberg being an undeserved bonus.
