The white speck in the crater is a farmhouse. My map of Iceland isn't detailed enough to name this one of the 15 Westman Islands, but the view from the ferry returning to Landeyjahofn delivered a spectacular view of the volcano Solheimajokull. Then, from the #52 bus back to Reykjavik, I had a great view of the waterfall Seljalandsfoss and the road to Porsmork, on the flank of volcano Eyjafjallajokull. Also got a nice clear view of volcano Hekla. No need for me to shell out for one of the many "Golden Circle" daytrips after this one, via a long distance city bus, costing ISK 8000 return, or about $70. It's great when you can figure things out like this.
