A new hot water lagoon. Dramatic! 1973 saw the eruption on the Westermann Islands, Iceland. Heimey was the eruption. The Open University geological group took twenty of us on a field trip 18 months after the disaster. The Fokker Friendship landed us on an ashfield - the old strip was lost. The ground was still hot. We walked across the roofs of buried houses and looked down chimneys. My boots rotted with the sulphur. A wonderful trip - apart from the weak Icelandic beer.
