Staff at Tjarnarskógur playschool in Egilsstaðir, East Iceland have noticed tourists camping next to the playschool fence and going to the toilet within view.  "We saw one of them going into the woods to go to the toilet, it's really obvious that there's a playschool here so they should know better," said a staff member. 

"It's really distasteful. It's in a garden where the festivities for the National Day will be held on Saturday with lots of activities for kids." She adds that the children had seen the tent and the tourists but had not seen the tourist going to the toilet.
