There are two ways of viewing this world: as if nothing is a miracle, or as if everything is.

I choose the latter. It makes life more interesting.
Worlds Most Amazing Islands

Wow, world's most amazing islands, both natural and man-made. The first two islands on the list are my favorites:

Gunkanjima, an abandoned Japanese island, was the home for over 5,300 coal miners and was the world's most densely populated island. In 1974 it became completely deserted and is now just a bunch of urban ruins.

Surtsey, an island near Iceland, was formed in a volcanic eruption that started in 1963 and lasted till 1967. It gave the scientists an opportunity to watch an island form and life settle on it.
