The Viking Abode

Isnt this a pretty sight? I've been looking forward to seeing these grass-roof houses in person ever since I saw pictures of them. I found it so strange at first but given the harsh weather people have to endure and available resources around at the time, it makes a lot of sense for houses to be built this way - and, they're green in every sense of the word!
