  6. Iceland is actually very green. The Vikings said it was called Iceland because they didn't want anybody to know about it. They thought if someone wanted to know about it they'd get in trouble. So they told everyone that Greenland was very green but it's actually very icy.

There is a lot of steam that people use for electricity. There is something called the Blue Lagoon and people swim in it. In Iceland there is something called a Geyser and it explodes. There are not any mosquitoes there. I would love to visit Iceland!! :)
