美國4遊客冰島冰川上野餐 遇冰川斷裂被漂走
It was anything but a quiet meal for a group of tourists who stopped to have a picnic on a glacier in Iceland, only to have their vantage point break off and float away.
一羣遊客只是想在冰島的某處冰川上野餐而已，結果他們所處位置的冰川斷裂開來，帶着他們漂走了。
The four Americans had stopped for a Sunday dinner at the Fjallsárlón glacial lagoon in East Iceland over the weekend, setting up a table and chairs for their feast.
上週六晚上，四位美國遊客在冰島東部的Fjallsárlón冰湖過週末，他們在冰川上支起桌子放好椅子準備吃晚餐。
But suddenly, a gust of wind caused the ice floe they were sitting on to break off and drift out into the water. One of the tourists was able to scramble off the massive piece of ice and called 112 for help.
但突然，一股強風襲來造成他們所在的冰川斷裂朝水中漂去。其中一名遊客及時爬到了另一塊大浮冰上，打了112（歐盟國家的報警電話）求救。
When they were found by first responders, they were about 32 feet off the shore, according to Iceland Review. The tourists were not identified.
根據冰島評論網站的報道，當第一批急救人員趕來時，他們已經漂離到離岸邊32英尺開外的地方了。
A photo from the scene shows the three tourists sitting calmly in the chairs before they were saved. After the daring rescue, the first responders took a lighthearted approach to the tourists' predicament.
現場的一張照片可以看到，三名遊客在獲救前冷靜地坐在椅子上。在奮勇前去營救後，急救人員看到這些遊客的窘境也都忍俊不禁。
'When we arrived it was quite comical to see them sitting on chairs and with a table on an iceberg,' Páll Sigurður Vignisson of the Hornafjörður rescue team, told Iceland Review. He added: 'Yes, the dinner was over.'
來自Hornafjörður救援隊的Páll對《冰島評論》的記者表示：“當我們到達時，看到他們圍坐在冰川上的桌子旁椅子上，樣子真的挺喜感的。” 他還補充說道：“對，晚餐結束啦。”
When pressed by the paper to reveal what it was the tourists had been eating, Páll said that he was too busy passing over lifejackets to them to notice.
在被記者問及遊客們當時吃的是東西時，Páll表示當時忙着給他們遞救生衣，沒注意這些細節。
In an interview with RÚV, he took a more serious tone. Páll said: 'They could have been in danger. We never know how ice will behave, if it rolls over and when - we just don’t know.'
而在接受 RÚV電視臺採訪時，他的態度嚴肅多了。他表示：“遊客們這樣的行爲還是挺危險的。我們不知道浮冰會怎麼變化，如果冰塊翻過來了，那後果真的不堪設想啊。”
The Fjallsárlón glacial lagoon is a hot spot among visitors to Iceland, known for its spectacular views, huge glaciers and numerous icebergs dotting the area's waters.
Fjallsárlón冰湖一直是來冰島旅遊的遊客的愛去的熱門景點，冰湖景色壯麗，巨大的冰川和數目衆多的冰山遍佈冰湖區域的水面上。
