> Sounds like bunch of gumbies putting each other's lives in danger. Not ok. One weird thing about Iceland (as of 2008) that might be related: They don't do warning signs. - Superheated geyser pool 3 feet from the foot path? No warning sign 95% of the time. The other 5%? "Danger: Hot." - A slippery tourist trail 5 feet from a rushing river that immediately goes over an 80 foot waterfall? No warning sign. Often no railing, either. - A road to a tourist attraction that might rip your transmission out? No warning sign. I could give more examples of unmarked deadly hazards at major tourist attractions. Iceland appears to assume that deadly hazards are common, and that you'll use common sense. Or maybe you won't, and you'll stick your hand in a geyser. I'm reluctant to draw any kind of philosophical point here, besides "When visiting Iceland, please use common sense and pay attention to your surroundings."
