Chapter 1359 1342. Glacier Farm (35)

At the dinner table, the old man began to introduce most of his life.

"My name is Gianluca Serusico, Gianluca means God's gift, I was born just after World War II, you know, relative to the war era, I was born at a lucky time... ..."

The old man Gianluca was born in Sicily, Italy, which is the beautiful island in the movie The Beautiful Legend of Sicily. Italy developed rapidly after the war, and Gianluca found a job as a car salesman.

It was the era of the big car explosion, and in just two years he earned what his father had earned in half his life, and because of his grades, the company gave him a chance to travel at public expense.

"Our boss called me many times later and told me that when I proposed to come to Iceland to see the glacier, he should categorically reject me, haha." He laughed out loud.

"When you came to Iceland, you fell in love with it and chose to immigrate here, right?" Wang Bo asked.

The old man said: "I fell in love with the girl here. My wife, a beautiful British girl, and I met here. The beauty here is really moving, so we decided to live here."

He pointed to his mouth: "My English is taught by her, do you think I have a London accent?"

"I have never been to London, but your pronunciation is very standard." Wang Bo nodded.

The following story is plain but happy. The husband and wife settled down here, one became a teacher and the other was still a salesman.

But unfortunately, his wife passed away when they were preparing to retire, so Gianluca built a small house here and came here to fish from time to time.

No matter where he said, Gianluca's tone was optimistic.

Speaking of his wife's death, Wang Bo said sorry, but Gianluca shrugged and said: "I'm not sad, we will meet in heaven soon. When we were alive, we loved each other, you see, people who love each other Thirty years of the life I love, in the place I love, and what could be better?"

Eva held Wang Bo's hand and looked longingly at the blue sky, and slowly said: "Yes, what a wonderful life this is."

A good meal, a more beautiful life, Wang Bo is satisfied with his visit to the waterfall.

They didn't go back until the evening, and when they arrived in the urban area, the lights were on and night fell.

It was still Bo dad and Bo mother watching the children, and little Lolita reading, and the two went clubbing.

In the first few days, they wandered around the city and the surrounding scenic spots. Later, Wang Bo changed tools and rented a yacht, brought the whole family and fur children on board, and then went to sea.

Reykjavik is an excellent port. It has the clearest fishing ground in the world and some sea farms. Wang Bo wants to visit it.

There are many small islands around Iceland. Some islands have glaciers all year round, while others are warm and snow-free all year round.

What caused this weird situation is the weather and geographical environment. The warm North Atlantic current passes through this sea area, and the cold Arctic current also passes through this area. Some islands are formed by volcanic eruptions.

In this way, if the island is located in the cold current belt, there will be tens of thousands of years of glacial terrain. If it is located in the warm current belt and there is abundant geothermal heat below, the temperature of the island will be suitable all year round.

The glacial islands are owned by some flora and fauna, birds and marine mammals, while the warm islands are settled by humans and, because of the nutrient content of the volcanic ash, have been developed into farms.

These farms are called glacier farms, but they are not actually located on glacier islands. Wang Bo understands that this is just a gimmick.

The farm Wang Bo chose to visit is called Qili Aurora. It is located in the sea 60 kilometers southwest of the port. It is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Reykjavik, especially popular with Asian tourists.

In this way, although the name of Qili Aurora is "farm", its main business is no longer the traditional animal husbandry, but has turned to tourism and entertainment.

Wang Bo chose this farm to visit, one is to learn, and the other is that this farm has a kind of livestock he needs.

The sea farm is one of the main tourist attractions promoted by the Iceland Tourism Bureau. The area of ​​the beautiful aurora is more than 30 hectares. Although it is not the largest sightseeing farm in Iceland, it is the most popular because of its good management.

The farm is privately owned and managed and operated by two families. Since it is privately operated, tickets are required to visit here.

The island has an area of ​​more than 200 hectares, and the terrain is uneven. The farm is located in the southeast, and a small pier has been built here. After getting off the boat, you can go directly to the farm.

Wang Bo wanted to keep Xiao Wang and the others on the boat, but the captain pissed in fright: "Sir, you should take them away. If my fellows accidentally mess with them, I'm afraid the whole ship will be destroyed by then!"

Anyway, apart from the farm, the island is wilderness, so Wang Bo simply let them go wild by themselves.

In terms of tourism, Qili Aurora Farm can provide traditional Icelandic agricultural performances, experience the daily life of Icelandic farms and pastures, and participate in colorful outdoor activities.

The summer farm has four colorful farm shows every day, starting at 10.40 am, 12.10 noon, 1.30 pm and 3.40 pm every day.

And now it is winter, there are only two games a day, that is, the morning and noon.

In terms of adult tickets, a ticket costs 2,000 Icelandic Krona, and children's tickets are half price. Wang Bo bought the tickets, and then a part-time tour guide from the farm staff took them into the farm.

The farm has been carefully planned, but due to seasonal reasons, many lands are barren.

The tour guide said: "I hope you can understand that there are no crops in the field now. If it is later in spring, you can see patches of malting wheat, dwarf corn, rye and other crops growing."

"Now, I can take you to watch the performances on the ranch. There are shepherd dog performances, sheep shearing performances, and horse and cattle performances. You can also milk the cows yourself and set traps to catch birds."

Wang Bo was tired of playing these projects on his own territory, so he said he would go and have a look, but he didn't get started. He had other goals.

In addition to them, there were other tourists, a total of twenty or so individuals.

After a general visit, there are entertainment projects in the ranch, and children can ride horses.

There are more than ten batches of Icelandic horses bred on the ranch. This is the horse breed with the purest blood in the world. It was transported to Iceland from Northern Europe about 1,200 years ago and has not been crossed with other breeds for thousands of years.

Most of these horses are golden in color, petite and cute, but regardless of their small size, they have amazing strength, are not afraid of severe cold, and are good at long-distance races.

Needless to say, these Icelandic horses were the livestock that Pharaoh wanted to get when he visited the farm.
