hot water too
The Washington Post Magazine

IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO OVERSTATE the significance of hot water in Iceland. The entire nation runs on clean geothermal heat, drawn from deep underground.... such a connection to water may help explain why Icelanders are quite simply in love with their swimming pools. There are 126 public pools in a nation of 290,000 people. To put that in perspective, New York City has 68 public swimming pools for its 8 million residents.

“... In Iceland, there are 13 Santas. Instead of bringing gifts, they take turns sneaking into town and creeping out the locals. The 13 Santas live in the mountains with their troll-like mother and her giant cat, which eats all the children who don't receive new clothes for Christmas. They party for 13 nights, and then things really get interesting. "That's when people come out of their graves," said Iceland native Hoffy Steingrimdottir. "Seals take on human form. And cows develop human speech." The moral of the story? It doesn't matter what you believe as long as you believe. The other moral of the story? They've got some good hooch in Iceland.
