    We've controlled the game so far, but no cutting edge. Stokes is dropping off too deep. We need to spend soon.

    interesting facts about iceland - The city of Reykjavik is located in southwest Iceland at only two degrees south of the Arctic Circle. As a result, the city gets only four hours of sunlight on its shortest day in the winter and during the summer it receives almost 24 hours of daylight.

    Nearly as bad as Aberdeen. No wonder ER's always so angry.

    Although Reykjavik is located near the Arctic Circle it has a much milder climate than other cities at the same latitude due to its coastal location and the nearby presence of the Gulf Stream. Summers in Reykjavik are cool while winters are cold. The average January low temperature is 26.6&#730;F (-3&#730;C) while the average July high temperature is 56&#730;F (13&#730;C) and it receives about 31.5 inches (798 mm) of precipitation per year. Because of its coastal location, Reykjavik is also usually very windy year round.

    Cars are the most popular choice of transporation for Iceland's residents. Reykjavik's public transportation is a bus system (called 'Strætó bs) which is not very popular in this car friendly city. Route 1 (the Ring Road) runs by the city outskirts and connects it to the rest of Iceland. Reykjavik Airport, the second largest airport in the country, is positioned just south of the city centre. It is mainly used for domestic flights and flights to Greenland and the Faroe Islands. Reykjavik has two seaports, used by fishermen, cruise ships, and cargo transporters.

    Reykjavik is a very wet city, having an average of 213 rainy days every year.

    I'm reliably informed that Sportacus and Robbie Rotten are at the game tonight.

    Many Icelanders believe in elves. Certain roads have been re-routed to avoid disturbing areas where elves are thought to live.
