Do you believe...? 


This rock in Hestfjörður was moved from the shoreline when the road was being built because some people believed elves lived there :o)

Oddur Jonssonpro replies:
Some people believe elves live in rocks, cliffs and other things of nature. When this rock was where the new road was being built, some machines from the contractor started breaking down and he had some mishaps. After this rock was moved, he at least stopped blaming the elves for it :o)
I haven't seen any elves yet... but you can never be certain about things like that ;o)

Svakalega falleg mynd, hrein og tær... flott að sjá gárurnar í áttina að steininum.

Hmmm... ég hefði haldið að álfarnir myndu nú ekki vera ánægðir með að bústaðnum þeirra væri hent út í sjó...? :o)

Oddur Jonssonpro replies:
Takk Begga. Gleiðlinsan blekkir talsvert, steinninn er rétt í fjöruborðinu og var fyrir aðeins í sjó, þanning að í mesta lagi flæðir aðeins meira inn i kjallarann hjá þeim en áður :o) Líklega geta þeir labbað á þurru í land á fjöru... en kannski er þetta bara steindautt grjót í flæðarmálinu :D

And did they find the elves? :-)

Oddur Jonssonpro replies:
They actually sent a man to "listen" to the rock after it had been moved. He got the feeling that the elves were ok and had no complaints :o)
