Erecting a New Hotel in Siglufjörður

It seems, that people can't live anymore from fishing, and so they decided, due to the beautiful surroundings, to invest in tourism. So they are erecting a brandnew hotel very next to the harbour. People's opinions are ambiguous with this project. On the one hand they say, that there's absoulutely no need to have a hotel in the middle of the harbour, on the other hand most of the people understand, that tourism is important for the surviving of the city.

Driftwood at Jökulsárlón

They say, that it comes, embedded in ice floes, from the Sibirian coast. Mainly it's found on the northern coast of Iceland. This one I found, in addition to three others, on the south-eastern coast in the very near of glacier lagoon Jökulsárlón. Driftwood is one of the most important wood sources in Iceland.
