is it true about the hotel made of ice?

it is true. but this idea was realised the first time in finnland ,i think. now , you can find such hotels in canada,sweden and iceland as well. it started as a fun , but as you may know , rich and crazy people have to try out everything. i don't know what's funny in sleeping on icebeds covered with furs and sleeping bags and having a temperature of + 2 C . another reason i don't like it ,is the one you have to rebuild it every year.

Can you turn the heater on in your room in the ice hotel? Or would this be a very bad idea?

Iceland looks beautiful!! What are the wild areas like? Do you have polar bears?
Few trees though!
Do they need English teachers EFL in Iceland?
How is the X-country skiing there?
I imagine it is colder there than even on the east side of Washington State but man would I miss the trees. I love the architecture of your city!!!

very rarely polar bears come to iceland on the drift ice. but whenever  bears want to immigrate to our lovely island ,hunters will make them a quickly end, how sad. usualy immigrants will not be shot down ,so you can  come to iceland and make your luck. you can make exciting ski-tours at the great  mountain area and if you love alpine skiing as well. this winter is not very cold ,but the last days we had temperatures about -6 C. ok ,trees you will miss ,like we don't have railways on iceland . but we have friendly and hospitably people here.
 
ops, i forget , god night to every one , i hope i will see you again in peace and harmony ( or go to hell )

I love bears from a distance!!
We have black bears (lots of them) and grizzly bears (rare) in our forests. I know that polar bears are stricly meat eater and far more dangerous to humans that the before mentioned bears. I sometimes bring a gun but most of the time I bring pepper spray for bears, by theory it is suppose to work. Maybe a smaller black bear but not a grizzly.
Hey in Iceland is there a big market for English?
I really love the pictures here and it would be fun to stay there for a year.

Icelanders dream differently
Icelandic National Broadcasting Service, RV, reports on the research of a Dutch anthropologist, Adrienne Heijnen.

In Iceland dreams are thought to contain messages and predict the future, but in central-Europe, they are thought to reflect the psychological condition of people.

Heijnen conducted her doctoral research on Icelandic dreams at the University of Aarhus in Denmark. She interviewed 150 Icelanders about their dreams, aged three to ninety and living in Reykjavk and in the rural south.

Heijnen presented her results at a lecture in rnastofnun (The rni Magnsson Institute). Dreams are interpreted differently in Iceland than in central-Europe, she said. In their dreams, Icelanders are frequently visited by the deceased, she said, and the dreams have a "social context". In central-Europe, they are thought to reflect the psychological condition of the people who experience them.
 
i found that in a newspaper. they interviewed kids of three about there dreams ? my little doughter would tell them some crazy stories about blue elephantes ,i suppose.
visit of deseased ? rarely ,only sometime of leif eriksson ,who told ,he better wouldn't had discovered america ,cause of the aftermath of this ! and sometimes maradonna ,but this guy's still living ,a surprise as well.

Record temperatures in February

Reykjavk experienced the warmest February since 1965 last month, reports daily Morgunbladid. The average temperature in the capital measured 3.3 degrees -- 2.9 degrees above average February temperatures.

According to the Icelandic Meteorological Office, it was the fourth warmest February since 1866 when meteorological measurements started. 1932 and 1965 (i can't even remember )saw substantially higher temperatures. In 1964, it was just a little warmer and in 1929 the temperature was approximately the same as this year.

Precipitation was also above average in southern and western Iceland last month, measuring 87mm, 20% over average precipitation.

The sun shone for 58 hours in Reykjavk last month, six hours above average.

The lowest February temperatures this year were at the glacier Brarjkull, - 25.8 degrees, while Seydisfjrdur experienced the highest temperatures, 16.2 degrees.

the global warming or only a snap-shot of the eternity ?
