Eyjafjallajokull Glacier

If you come to Iceland, you have to learn how to pronounce Eyjafjallajokull.  Eyja means Islands, Fjalla means Mountains, and Jokull means Glacier.  Its fame is not only coming from its nearly impossible pronunciation, more importantly, its eruption in 2010 caused the closure of Europe flight space for several days and stranded millions of travelers.

Myrdalsjokull Glacier

A week before we came, the Katla volcano beneath Myrdalsjokull Glacier was very active and official even closed down the roads to the glacier.  We were lucky that it did not erupt where we were there!
