This reminds me of the trip I took to Iceland in 2010. Just on the day we were about to fly back home we were instructed to turn on the Hotel TV, which was showing very eerie video footage of Eyjafjallajökull erupting. The stark emergency chyron combined with the vague video footage gave us a very unsettled feeling. Then we walked into the lobby where some 80s pop was playing, the staff was cheery and asked what we'd like to have for breakfast because we'd probably fly home a few hours delayed. I guess you become unflappable when you literally live on top of volcanoes :) On the Iceland Air flight home we watched a very interesting documentary about the Eldfell eruptions in 1973. It's really fascinating, although I can't seem to find a link to the docu.
