A group of tourists spent hours looking for a missing woman near Iceland’s Eldgja canyon. The search was called off at about 3 a.m., when it became clear that the woman was, in fact, in the group searching for herself.
The group was traveling on a tour bus and stopped near the volcanic canyon. One of the women left the bus to change her clothes and freshen up. When she came back, no one recognized her. Soon, there was word of a missing passenger. The woman didn’t recognize the description of herself and joined in the search. About 50 people searched the terrain by vehicles and on foot. The coast guard was even readying a helicopter to help. |
