Eyjafjallajokull -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Q3YVkm8YJM (this clip of newscasters trying to pronounce it is worth a peek!)
It erupted last year - spring of 2010.
Then in 2011 there was the Grimsvotn - a sub glacial volcano - that has the highest eruption frequency.
August of 2011 - none - so far. Please!
Although - the eruptions only cause glacial outbursts and close up Highway 1 and flight traffic. Not too many people getting swallowed up - I’d rather deal with volcanic ash then tectonic plates.
Most famous Icelandic volcano - Hekla - in the middle ages known as gate to hell.
I’m really not into the whole volcano thing - but I’m wanting to find out what the lava is all about and how it’s supposedly good for the complexion. I hear.
