Margrét Ósk Elíasdóttir is a whale watching guide for Whale Watching Hauganes in Eyjafjörður. Iceland is a prime location for whales, and the summer months is a great time to spot them. Margret's enthusiasm for the job shines through her voice.

I learned about The Great Fish Day too late. We had booked our flights to Iceland and would be returning the week before the event. The airline wanted $2,000 to change the flight, so we would just have to miss it. Fortunately, I was able to talk to the director of one of the largest events in Iceland and get the story about its beginnings, management, and importance to a country and its people.
