Last weekend we sailed to Leirufjordur with a group of guys, the youngest age 14 and the oldest aged 87. One of these was Sigurjon Hallgrimsson (80) who was born there and spent the first 30-35 years of his life there as a farmer and fisherman, until he moved away when the Jokulfirdir (Glacier Fjords) area was completely abandoned in the late fifties.
