Thursday

The house in Viðfjörður was built there in 1928 and in 1930 was when the three family's moved there. There were three brothers and one uncle who owned the house, before then the house was in great condition but when they left to go to sea in 1936 they never came back. So in 1955 the house was left to rot on its own for many years until 1989 there came five siblings that was deciding on saving the house or taking it down but in the end they decided to rebuild it again and now it is owned by their families that share this house together. 

And on the bottom floor there is a emergency shelter where people can come and for the rescue team.

This power station was built somewhere in 2017-2018 and it allows the house in Viðfjörður to have electricity. There are pipes connected from the lakes in the mountains down to the cabin which allows the water to come down and into the station, the water flows through a pipe and then spins the blades in a turbine, which, in turn, spins a generator that ultimately produces electricity.

The Eider duck nests in Viðfjörður are taken care of by two men. Their nests are down on the beach and close to the ocean. The birds lay on their eggs 24/7 until they hatch. There are electric fences all around where the birds lay their nests to protect them from the Arctic foxes. The foxes don't jump so they can't go over the fence and if they try to under they get hit by the electricity.

And when the birds have hatched and the Eider duck season has finished, the men can go and collect the dune that has fallen from the birds chests. The dune is then dried, cleaned and then selled. People use the dune to put into pillows, bedspreads and even to make clothes.
