A volcano in Iceland throws red lava after 6,000 years of rest, causing singer Bjork, who lives just 6 miles away, to erupt with joy.
“YES !! , eruption !! “She wrote on Instagram about the dramatic explosion in the Reykjanes Peninsula, 20 miles southwest of the capital, Reykjavik.
“We in Iceland are so excited !!! She breathed.
“We still have it !!! feeling of relief when nature expresses itself !!! rejoice, warmth, björk. ”
As a “PS”, she included a moment of herself in her 2015 video “Black Lake”, showing her on her knees in a volcanic ash pit.
“This photo is taken where the eruption is … I filmed the ‘black lake’ there … 30 minutes from my house,” she said.
The eruption, described as relatively small by local volcanologists, is the first in the area in almost 800 years.
Bjork and her neighbors will probably not have to be evacuated because the eruption is in a distant valley, about a mile and a half from the nearest road.
