The hostel was as strange as Arnés itself, and our room was jam packed full of insects of every variety. Still, the kitchen was nice and well equiped, so we whipped ourselves up some noodles and got to bed early in preparation for Day 5 - a day long drive covering around a third of the distance around the entire island, to Berunés Hostel, deep into the South-eastern fjords and beyond Vatnajökull - Europe's largest glacier at over 150km across.
