Grímsey is very small, with population of about 100 people, it seems a bit deserted. But not people are main inhabitants of this small island, but birds. There are millions of them, majority are Puffins and Arctic Tern. We spent about 4 hours on the island, and we managed to walk almost all the way around it. There is not much there - airport, some houses, one shop, petrol station (I really don't know why they need cars out there), bar, guesthouse and a post office. But the trip was a great experience and I managed to do some nice pictures which I present to you just below:

And small off-topic - last week we had a workshop on electrolysis in one of the high schools in Akureyri - it caused some interest from the local and national press:
