This is so exciting. The last time there was a major volcanic eruption in Europe, it shut down air travel for ages over there. Plus there was a cool and totally improbable scene in Walter Mitty about it.
For ages = for one week in the Central Europe. I had a trip booked for roughly exactly the duration of the eruption back then.
It was shut down entirely for a week initially, and then would be shut down again periodically as the ash/debris cloud floated along through air lanes.
That Walter Mitty scene made me laugh. It was filmed in Seyðisfjörður, which is around 700 km away from Eyjafjallajökull. They had even changed the map shown in the movie, so it was unrecognizable for an Icelander! 😂

Also that totally sucks.

I had no idea. That’s hilarious.
This is the third eruption that’s occured on the peninsula in three years and it’s largely died down so I wouldn’t call it “exciting”
It’s pretty though.
Volcanic eruptions are always exciting.
