Silent winter
The old village sleeps for the winter. Travelers are not many at this time of year, although winter can be a pleasurable experience. But spring is on its way very soon.

Thus Eyrarbakki
An old drawing by Halldor Petursson shows life in the old Eyrarbakki, Iceland chariot horses, Icelandic dog, children and people working at a small store. This shop is still operating and selling mainly souvenirs.Monday, February 20, 2012
Eyrarbakki in time
Modernity meets the old times. Electricity, and television antennas linking the old house to the world.
The old street has almost not changed over the centuries. Thus Eyrarbakki, always the same.
This old man is no longer collecting hay in his spot. But the spot is still the same place and some other old man will beat spot ever.Monday, November 14, 2011

Last summer festival ended.
Many Icelandic towns celebrate the summer time and most of the town with one special celebration. On Eyrarbakki are three holidays during the summer time. First, early spring, so is the middle of summer festival. Last festival is in mid-August. Thousands of people visit this old 19th century town every year. Every house and everything has a great story to tell the next generation. Foreign tourists who are interested in Icelandic history and nature visit the town in summer as winter. In winter it is the major surf from the Atlantic, which calls for tourists to watch the great waves breaking along the coast.
