See how they run...

... in The Reykjavik Marathon that stared at 08:30 this morning with 13.000 participants. Reykjavik is not large enough so they run through our town, Seltjarnarnes too (only joking!). This is the beginning of The Culture Night (or day) in Reykjavik, on its birthday which is to day. All day there will be festivities all over Reykjavik and into the night - even Russel Crow is going to perform some music.

How long does it take 13.000 people to run past your window?
Answer: Three hours.

I recently took this picture out of the same window and several others - and tonight I will also take a picture when the fireworks starts.
