I was in Iceland when the last eruption started. When I went to Keflavik airport to fly back to the UK, you could see the eruption from the main road. The only change to the flight was that the plane took off to the north for about 10 minutes before it turned south
Man, I got a shock when I came home yesterday, checked TH-cam & bam, another eruption 😮. Been a good distraction & binge watching most of the day. Would never put me off travelling to Iceland, safe as 😊. Ps, we are into day 3 of a heatwave & I’ve had the ac running at times 🥵. Thankfully no catastrophic fire conditions for my state!
Hi Jan, it is always amazing to think of all of the force underground that causes such an eruption with all of the Hot Lava Flow. Thanks for this video about this current eruption.
I hope I‘m allowed to post this here but for me the best way to be close to the eruption is to join a live-stream with Isak. It’s a TH-camr origin from Iceland. He is not only approaching the fissures as a tourist, he is in contact with the local rangers to help to rescue people if necessary. He is a very respectful drone pilot with a Mavic 3 and know exactly how to deal with the wind/weather conditions. The Mavic 3 (series) are beasts as drones but in Iceland they are anyway on the edge with wind and temperatures below zero. Here’s a link for today, may it’s well worth to look around to other live streams. th-cam.com/users/liveU011uA8escE?si=Vhnz_6cVW8F5lWJ8
Valid information. Those Vulcano eruptions are pretty dangerous. About the thermal baths: I prefer the GeoSea baths in HUSAVIK (whale watching nearby) to the Blue Lagoon, which, in my opinion is seriously overpriced. Bathing in purified waste water from a nearby plant (look it up, it's on youtube!) surrounded by black vulcanic rocks might look pretty but it's certainly not worth the entrance price. I found Geosea to be much better and the views are amazing. Just my opinion.
it's just a convenient location i would say...but it is overpriced and crowded. many other better options around the island I would say...Geosea is great, the views there are just amazing!
