Iceland – A Land Glaciers, Volcanos And Boiling Water
Going to Akureyri on the Eyjafjörður (a fjord) we sail past a very unusual sight – a steaming waterfall plunging into the fjord. Later when inquiring we learn that the Icelandic Highway Department was digging a highway tunnel through a hillside when they hit a boiling water under groumd stream. While there are future plans to use the find to generate electricity, for now they are simple piping it out the the side of the hill to become a boiling waterfall. There is also interest from a company that would like to build a spa on the hillside to take advantage of the free hot water.
