After a week of going back and forth between garages and adjustments, the car is ready.

🛠️ Mounted snorkel,

⚙️ clutch cable changed,

🔧 Symering replaced - everything you need to tackle Iceland's fords, trails, and unexpected events.

And that's not all:

📦 We received the tent annex!

It's coffee-colored (instead of the original blue), because we make do with what the deadlines allow... and in the end, it's perhaps better that way. Discreet, sober, solid.

Third night test in the roof tent, and this time:

✅ no cracking,

☀️ a little too warm (the Icelandic sleeping bag is unforgiving at 25°C),

💤 but a really good night, calm and reassuring.

In short, nine days before departure:

the tent is ready,

the car is ready,

we… almost.
