1342. Glacier Nongchang 3/5)
At the dinner table, the old man began to introduce most of his life. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"My name is Gianluca Serusicco, Gianluca means gift from God, I was born right after the end of World War II, you know, I was lucky enough to be born relative to the times of war......"
The old man Gianluca was born in Sicily, Italy, which is the beautiful island in the beautiful legend of Sicily in the movie, and after the war, Italy developed rapidly, and Gianluca got a job as a car salesman.
It was the era of the Big Bang, and in just two years he earned the money that his father had only earned in half a lifetime, and because of his achievements, the company gave him a chance to travel at public expense.
"Our boss called me many times and told me that when I proposed to come to Iceland to see the glaciers, he should have rejected me categorically, haha." He laughed out loud at this.
"You came to Iceland and fell in love with it and chose to immigrate here, didn't you?" Wang Bo asked.
"I fell in love with the girl here, and my wife, a beautiful English girl, met here, and the beauty of this place was really moving, so we decided to come and live here," the old man said. ”
He pointed to his mouth: "She taught me English, do you think there is a London accent?" ”
"I've never been to London, but your pronunciation is pretty standard." Wang Bo nodded.
The rest of the story is plain and happy, and the husband and wife settle here, one is a teacher and the other is still a salesman.
Sadly, his wife died just as they were about to retire, so Gianluca built a small house here and came here to fish from time to time.
Everywhere he spoke, Gianluka's tone was optimistic.
When it came to the death of his wife, Wang Bo said sorry, but Gianluca shrugged and said, "I'm not sad, we will meet in heaven soon." When we were alive, we loved each other, and you see, the people who loved each other lived a life they loved for thirty years in the place they loved, and what could be better than that? ”
Eva held Wang Bo's hand and looked at the blue sky yearningly, and said slowly: "Yes, what a beautiful life this is." ”
A good meal, a more beautiful life, Wang Bo expressed satisfaction with his waterfall visit.
They played until late in the evening, and waited until the city was already lit up and night fell.
It's still Bo Dad and Bo Mom watching the children, and Little Lori reading books, and the two go clubbing.
In the first few days, they wandered around the city and the surrounding scenic spots, and later, Wang Bo changed tools, rented a yacht, brought the whole family and furry children up, and then went to sea.
Reykjavík is an excellent port with some of the clearest fishing grounds in the world, as well as some marine farms that Wang Bo wants to see.
There are many small islands around Iceland, some of which have glaciers all year round, while others are warm and snow-free all year round.
The reason for this strange situation is the weather and geography, the warm North Atlantic current passes through this area, the cold Arctic current also passes through the area, and some islands are formed by volcanic eruptions.
In this way, if the island is located in a cold current zone, there is a glacial terrain that spans tens of thousands of years, and if it is located in a warm current zone and there is abundant geothermal heat below, the island has a pleasant temperature all year round.
The glacial islets are owned by a number of flora, fauna and birds, marine mammals, while the warm islands have been inhabited by humans and have been developed into farms because of the nutrient nature of volcanic ash.
These farms are called glacier farms, but they are not actually located on glacier islands, which Wang understands as a gimmick.
The farm Wang Bo chose to visit is called Aurora Aurora, located 60 kilometers southwest of the port, and is one of Reykjavík's most famous tourist attractions, especially popular with Asian tourists.
In this way, although the name of the Aurora is "Farm", its main project has long since shifted from traditional animal husbandry to tourism and entertainment.
Wang Bo chose this farm to visit, first, to learn, and second, this farm has a kind of livestock that he needs.
The Sea Farm is one of the main tourist attractions promoted by the Icelandic Tourism Board, and although it is not the largest tourist farm in Iceland, it is the most popular because of its well-managed nature.
The farm is privately owned, managed and operated by two families, and since it is privately run, a ticket is required to visit the farm.
The island is more than 200 hectares in size, the terrain is undulating, and the farm is located in the southeast, and a small pier has been built here to go directly to the farm after disembarking.
Wang Bo wanted to leave Xiao Wang and them on the boat, but the captain was frightened: "Sir, you better take them away, if my guys accidentally provoke them, I am afraid that this ship will be completely destroyed by then!" ”
Anyway, the island is a wilderness except for the farm, so Wang Bo simply let them go and let them go wild by themselves.
On the tourism side, Aurora Farm offers traditional Icelandic agricultural performances, a first-hand experience of everyday life on Icelandic farms, and a variety of outdoor activities.
The Summer Farm has four colourful farm shows every day, starting at 10.40am, 12.10pm, 1.30pm and 3.40pm.
And now it's winter, and there are only two games a day, and that's the morning and noon.
In terms of adult tickets, a ticket costs 2,000 Icelandic kroner, and children's tickets are half price.
The farm was carefully planned, but due to the season, much of the land was deserted.
The tour guide said: "I hope you can understand that there are no crops in the field now, but if it is later in spring, you can see patches of malt, dwarf corn, rye and other crops growing." ”
"Now, I can take you to the pasture shows, there are sheepdog shows, sheep shearing shows, horse and cattle shows, and you can also go and milk the cows and set traps to catch the birds."
Wang Bo was tired of playing with these projects on his own turf, so he said that he would follow and take a look, so he wouldn't get started, he had other purposes.
In addition to them, there were other tourists, a total of about twenty people.
After a general visit, there is entertainment in the ranch and children can ride horses.
The ranch is home to more than 10 herds of Icelandic horses, the purest breed in the world, which were brought to Iceland from Northern Europe about 1,200 years ago and have not been crossed with other breeds for thousands of years.
Most of these horses are golden and petite and cute, but despite their small size, they have amazing strength, are not afraid of the cold, and are good at long-distance races.
Needless to say, the livestock that Wang wanted to get during his visit to the farm were these Icelandic horses.
