A note here, I'm writing this now that I'm home because it was taking forever to upload pictures and I wanted to include them in the posts.The Iceland National Museum was very interesting with a great variety of natural exhibits and man made historical exhibits. I'm a sucker for exhibits that have anything to do with geology. This picture is of a cross section of Iceland's land from before settlers to now. You can see volcanic eruptions and other interesting bits of history with it.
Another intersting fact is that when Iceland was discovered it was during a warm time in world climate so more of Iceland was underwater than now. I know what we add to the air is causing global warming, but I found it interesting that people did live at times when it was warmer than now.
