In 2017, Alexandra Yingsd had a problem.

I needed to get to Reykjavik and I was up here in the West Fjords.

Normally, the drive takes around six hours,

but this particular day, there was a massive snowstorm.

I didn't feel comfortable driving in the snow,

and so a friend drove me all the way down to Reykjavik

and what normally takes six hours took many more

because we got stuck on a mountain pass in the snow

and had to wait for a plot to come, data's out.

After about 10 hours in the car, they finally made it,

and they checked into a hostel,

and exhausted, she plopped herself down at the bar.

And there next to her, on the bar, was a cheeseburger and fries.

But not a cheeseburger and fries that she could eat.

This cheeseburger and fries, they were on display,

in a glass case, like a guest of honor.

With a little sign that said,

hello, I am Mr. Burger,

and it had been such an awful day,

and I just sat at the bar next to this cheeseburger,

and it actually made me feel better.

It was just like a quirky thing, it's so Iceland.
