It opened and then closed again, then reopened again. The eruption on that peninsula seems to have gone quiet again, for now at least. The tarmac road to the Blue Lagoon is under a lava flow, however - they've made a temporary gravel one going around it.
Winter in the hot springs is really nice. Even though the air temperature's near freezing, there's so much heat rising from the pools that the bits of you not in the water don't get cold.
No lava - Iceland seems to have gone quiet again, at least the parts accessible within a day or so's drive of Reykjavik. Anything could be happening in the northeast and I wouldn't know.
