	I've worked out an itinerary for the first 2 days. The goal is to camp at a free campsite at Detifoss on Monday evening. That would put us ahead for the next 2 days. We would have covered 630 miles by then. I've allowed 16 hours driving time for that due to the gravel roads. We'd also spend over 8 hours out the car looking at stuff. This allows a bare minimum time for sleeping, eating, etc!		I've worked out an itinerary for the first 2 days. The goal is to camp at a free campsite at Detifoss on Monday evening.

		+	I think it's do-able. We'll have to miss out large chunks like the Snaefellsnes peninsula, Westjords and probably Lake Myvatn. You could spend 2 days in each of these locations easily. However, we're never going to be able to see everything anyway (at least not in this system!) so we just have to accept that.
