The famous troll statue along Reykjavik's shopping street.


The famous troll statue along Reykjavik's shopping street. Folks here are serious about their "hidden people." You can learn all about them at the Icelandic Elf School and the Icelandic road department has a troll expert on staff to make sure no roads are paved over homes of the "hidden people" or the 13 kinds of elves that are thought to live on the island.
