Good day - but still ....
Hi all. Great day today - weather wise and all. But the economy is going south. Our currency is devaluing a lot - about 40 percent since the beginning of the year. Still,we go downtown and have some coffie and play a little chess. More and more people are getting unemployed here. But the weather is ok ----

Summer in Iceland
Summer has arrived in Iceland.
And that means - rain !
Well ,it is still a little warmer,around 10 to 15 degrees on the celcius - and that is hot to us in Iceland.
Hope that you are all well .
Now Europe goes bonkers for a few weeks -- the Europian football competition is now on.

Festivals in Iceland
Hi all. Today is the day we celebrate the men and women who work on Boats ships and anything that floats. Every sailor is now ashore . Because we are a island and our main domestic product ,is the fish we produce. We have been to war ,becuase of the fishing rights . And we did beat the British Empire,in ,what was called the - Cod War. They sent big war ships ,against our few and small ships. Shots where fired,bust mostly the British rammed our ships. These wars where from the 1950s to the 1970s. But in the end ,the British Empire was defeated.
Here you can the history of the Cod Wars.
