Iceland on Skate Day 2 Jokulsaron to Skaftafell

Day 2
Jokulsaron to Skaftafell 60km
Woke up at 3am after 7 hours of camping at the beach. Decided to start early so i can have more time at skaftafell since there is light. In iceland, you will see lots of -fell and -foss. fell means mountain and foss is waterfall in icelandic language.
hit into pumping mode with a tail wind in first 10km. But soon the tail wind turns into cross wind when i turn into the mountains. Rain came pouring. In iceland, there is a saying if you dont like the weather, wait 5 minutes.
keep skating on and on,it seems i took the entire day to reach the destination Skaftafell but it is only 10 am. Seriously, the 24 hours daylight is affecting me. But good thing is i got all day to explore skaftafell and glaciers. bumped into the thai lady who i met in Hofn campsite and plus many others who i met along the way.
