The salmon season is off with a considerable bang in Iceland. Many of the main rivers have started and done well despite us having had one of the coldest springs for years (perhaps even decades). Our rivers though are late starters, Breiddalsa, Jokla and Hruta not starting until the 1rst of July. According to our latest reports we have rather more than reasonable grounds for optimism. According to a client who happened to have some bussiness close to Breiddalsa, he had a look at the pools beneath both the Beljandi falls and what he saw made him jump!
Salmon season looking good!
Volcano petering out
A sort of Dejavu...right? A year on, another volcanic eruption and seemingly a looming danger of grounded flights. We hear there is some of the "same as last year" going on in the UK but up here we say: Cheer up. The weather forecasts are favorable, and above all, the eruption is on the vane. Our volcano specialists have told the foreign and local media, that while this explosion was far bigger than last years effort by Eyjafjallajökull, the typical Grimsvotn eruption is a lot of fireworks initially but a deflated balloon within a few days. And so it has progressed, news tell us that the eruption has shrunk and even stopped , the worst is over.
