I was laughing so hard at hammering the tulips in and mowing the snow...lol...just like where I live in Canada! You Icelanders have an awesome sense of humor...and as always, thank you for the awesome update. God bless...
Not quite. We just got 25cm of snow here in Helsinki. Been mowing the snow all day. My wife will soon start the flower hammering in sheer desperation. Can't find the snowdrops anyhow.
Holy cow, Gylfi! Here I am as always, saving you as the best for last of my day, like icing on my cake of life.....knowing I will not be disappointed. I am still laughing.🤣👍🤗
I had just finished watching Jonna Jinton's video of doing laundry in Sweden in springtime (hilarious) and then watched this video of people in Iceland doing springtime gardening (also hilarious)! Thanks for the laugh!
Excellent video again Gylfi. I did laugh at the Icelanders hammering the tulips into the ground & then mowing snow!! Safe travels for your journey to Reykjanes Peninsula.
Thanks for the love in the morning. So now I know what's wrong with my planting tulips! 🤣🤣🌷🌷 Thanks for all your hard work, I love your videos, they show the wild beauty of your country well.
Some of us are English readers. So it is 'a hammer' Not 'an hammer'. It's okay for the Icelantic Internet word Police. But English for the English reader is important on Wensdays and today is Wednesday. So it is 'an' when preceeding a noun and 'a' for other words.
Thanks, Gylfi. Interesting update on Barðarbunga. According to the Smithsonian Global Volcanism Program, prior to the spectacular 2014-2015 episode, Barðarbunga had not had a confirmed eruption since 1910. Up until then, it had erupted roughly every 5-15 years. However, the same site documents no less than 10 *unconfirmed* eruptions between 1986 and 2008, which is a lot more frequent than 5-15 years, even if only half of those could be confirmed (I'm assuming that the uncertainty is due to those eruptions being subglacial, and therefore difficult to confirm, or to distinguish from those of its close neighbour, Grímsvötn). Also, thanks for the giggles at the end. If we don't get some rain soon here in South Australia, I might have to resort to the unique Icelandic method of planting flowers in my garden next Spring! 😂
That picture of the sunrise or sunset at 4:10 is stunning. As an amateur photographer myself I have had a passion for sunsets for some time. That one you showed is especially impressive.
Everytime i see there is a new clip from Gylfi it send a big smile on my face.Love your stories,the amazing pictures and your humor is great.Thank you ❤
Thank you for another great video. If you visit Iceland stop and read the many historical signs that are along the highway. This is one near Stokkseyri. An enormous eruption around 6700 B.C. in t he Heljargja canyon in the veloivotn region. The lava flowed at least 140 Km or 87 miles until it reached the sea. This is called the great pjorsarhraun lave eruption. It about 975 sq km or 376 sq miles and its volume is 25 km or 6 cubic miles. You can get a lot of information about Iceland from the signs along the road and this is just one of them. I look at your video and think Iceland past now and future. You cover all so well. will be back in Iceland for my 8 visit from June 26 until Aug. 14. I always find something new with each visit. Thank you Ben
Oh my goodness, this is really fascinating to learn, especially as we already have tickets to come to Iceland in October. Thank you again for your diligent work and the beautiful views. Drive safely!
Thank you again for your informative video. You are probably more of an expert then you think. Also thank you for the laugh with the videos ending. Take care ftom Australia
I so love your senes of humor. Thank you for making me laugh on a busy day. Safe travels and thank you for your great channel, you dedicate a lot of hard work and it shows. Cheers from Austin TX.
I live near Buffalo NY so I laughed when I saw the lawn mower in the snow at the end. I gardened last week in the light snow myself 😂another great update! 😊
Your videos are visually pleasing and creative. Loved the humor you slipped in there at the end - the guy mowing the snow reminded me of a scene in Svenska Hjärtan back in the late 80s. The guy freaks out because he's found out his wife is having an affair, yadda yadda...
Awesome ending!! Gave me a good chuckle 😂 It will be interesting to see how this develops in the coming months. Iceland's getting all kinds of Seismic activity!!
Hammering flowers into the ground. 😂 I wonder how you plant trees😅 Good morning Gylfy. I was right then when I told you several months ago about the disappearance of the ice sheet after the last ice age and the uplifting of Iceland out of the earth’s mantle which induces more volcanic activity. The future of Iceland will be impetuous but hopefully not too dangerous for the people. Stay safe.
Thank you Gylfi. Those two inset clips at the end .... I laughed out loud. Excellent visual humor and it seems to track your own sense of humor that peeks through some of your videos. Safe travels.
When I was a kid in New England we avoided the whole mowing snow/pounding in flowers - by painting flowers *on* the snow. You should have seen the tulips we had that May.....
Watching this last video really touches me. My motherThura was born and raised in the land of fire and ice; mother moved my older brother and older sister and myself to the US in 1952.
I really appreciate the videos you've been putting up because this isn't getting ANY air play here in the US. You and just a few other channels are my only sources of info on these geological events. That said, I'm always half expecting a "here vee goh!" or a "vat da faaak?!" from you every now and then because your voice reminds me of the Hydraulic Press Channel. 😀
thanks for the information gylfi and the comedic moments at the end do they have seismic monitoring to get a picture of the magma chamber below bardarbunga?
@3:35 " A big part of our island is lifting up " while bizarre earthquakes - worldwide - escalate in frequency and in magnitude - and yet next to no one notices.
Hammering tulips and mowing snow 😂. I have most of Icelands volcanos on watch on my app along with some in Italy as they are my nearest and potentials to cause problems especially if there is a big berp
I like the footage banging the flowers in the ground and mowing the snow😂. I was surprised with the bigger earthquake - do you know how widely that was felt in Iceland? I guess in Iceland with all the goings on you just have to take each day it as it comes. I like the footage of Iceland such a varied landscape.
I was felt in the north and east Iceland, but luckily, Bárðarbunga is very in the very rural area, or should we say, the area is rural due to Bárðarbunga :)
Well, I guess since tulips come from the land w/ traditional wooden shoes, wooden tulips seem only natural...Maybe someone in Iceland can invent a combination snow-blower/lawn-mower for those early-Spring mows...Thanks again for the informative report; the 'quake animations were interesting, and the drone footage spectacular!
Hammering flowers? You might want to consider the pneumatic floralspike market. Air tools that can plant 100 flowers per minute in the hands of a skilled florist, though you need a permit to own one... pranksters shooting tulips into the buttcheeks of their "friends" are why we can't have nice things.
5:36 🤣🤣 hammering down the flowers sent me into hysterics! 😂
I need rock climbing tools to break the clay here.
🌷 welcome
That brought tears to my eyes too 😅
loved it
😂😂😂
I was laughing so hard at hammering the tulips in and mowing the snow...lol...just like where I live in Canada! You Icelanders have an awesome sense of humor...and as always, thank you for the awesome update. God bless...
It's why so many Icelanders emmigrated to Canada 😂
When the calender says it’s spring ….
Pounding in flowers and mowing snow! Only in Iceland.
🌷 welcome
Love that Icelandic humor!
I've been doing it all wrong. I need to take my "flowers" up to the Sierra ski resorts to get them looking beautiful! 💜✌️😸🌷
This has a Monty Python vibe to it.
👍😁🍀😂thank you
Not quite. We just got 25cm of snow here in Helsinki. Been mowing the snow all day. My wife will soon start the flower hammering in sheer desperation. Can't find the snowdrops anyhow.
I love the smell of freshly hammered flowers! ❤
🌷 welcome
Springtime in Iceland is that magical time for tilling the snow, planting ice cubes for the next season. I am so pleased having met you on RUclips
The hammering flowers and lawn mover footages were excellent 😂😂😂😂 you made my day Gylfi
Have a great day :)
Oh man I lost it welcoming in spring at the end 😂
Thank You!.. and be safe!
🌷 welcome
Is Iceland the only country which harvests its vegetables ready-frozen?
@@davidcranstone9044
No idea. I don’t live in I-I-I-Iceland.
Holy cow, Gylfi! Here I am as always, saving you as the best for last of my day, like icing on my cake of life.....knowing I will not be disappointed. I am still laughing.🤣👍🤗
I had just finished watching Jonna Jinton's video of doing laundry in Sweden in springtime (hilarious) and then watched this video of people in Iceland doing springtime gardening (also hilarious)! Thanks for the laugh!
Oh Gylfi, your sense of humour is priceless 🤣 just what I need to make me smile and brighten up my day.
You are brilliant.
🤗 welcome
You are my favorite channel for all things Icelandic!
Happy to hear that and always welcome :)
I second that motion.
Excellent video again Gylfi. I did laugh at the Icelanders hammering the tulips into the ground & then mowing snow!! Safe travels for your journey to Reykjanes Peninsula.

Love the Icelandic gardening. Your videos are always interesting Gylfi, thank you for the calm and drama free explanations. Safe journey south.
Thanks and welcome :)
You are one very good comedian planting flowers with an hammer and mowing what is left of the snow . i'm still laughing about it
Some of us are English readers. So it is 'a hammer' Not 'an hammer'. It's okay for the Icelantic Internet word Police. But English for the English reader is important on Wensdays and today is Wednesday. So it is 'an' when preceeding a noun and 'a' for other words.
You have the perfect mix of information/education, spectacular footage of your lovely country, and delightful humor.
Thank you, Gylfi! 💜🌷🏞️✌️😸🍀
Thank you very much 🌷 aprecciated :)

No problem 😊
Thank you again for the update. Hope the people take care when they plant the tulips, you don't want to hit a hidden magma chamber 😂
Awesome ending!!

It will be interesting to see how this develops in the coming months. Iceland's getting all kinds of Seismic activity!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love your humour!

Hammering flowers into the ground. 😂
I wonder how you plant trees😅
Good morning Gylfy.
I was right then when I told you several months ago about the disappearance of the ice sheet after the last ice age and the uplifting of Iceland out of the earth’s mantle which induces more volcanic activity.
The future of Iceland will be impetuous but hopefully not too dangerous for the people.

The Nature Sculptures of Mother Nature are Breathe-Taking
The Highlands are crazy beautiful 😍
Flower-hammering season is always awaited with great anticipation. Of course, flowers with spikes are essential.
Wonderful time indeed
Smashing stuff Gylfi, thank you.
