DAY 7

We took a bus to Husavik which was a frequent whale watching port.  From there, we took a repurposed whaling boat
out and found a hunchback whale, and got to see a fair amount of it.  It was bitterly cold, but the sea was 
comperatively calm.

Once back on dry land, we went to the Phallological museum, after a detour to the ATM as it was one of the only places
in Iceland that didn't take credit cards.  The exhibit was pretty great, although the owner's carvings were the 
highlight as he had a penis bank box, gavel, shot glass set, etc.

We also checked out the more conventional whale museum, which conveniently seemed to blame most whale exhaustion on
the Norwegians. On the trip back the shuttle, which frequently veered over the line, stopped on the side of road to add a quart of
oil without comment.
