Hola!
Guatemala has numerous volcanoes, 3 of them active. Yesterday we took a trip to Pacaya, which erupted last in 2010. It was cool because we could see the difference in the lava rock from that eruption versus the previous one.
We hiked up near the top and could see that it’s still smoking. Our guide then pulled out a bag of marshmallows and, you got it, we roasted them over the lava. I can’t believe that 5 year old lava is still so hot underneath!
On the hike down we were rewarded with some sunset views. After some street food supper we caught some of the hockey game then tucked in. Almost every day of this trip I have been thankful for how lucky we are to get to experience all of this!
Today we checked in to our place that we’ll call home for the next week. It’s our Spanish school and it is posh: pool, tennis courts, huge garden area. Tomorrow we start our full days of one-on-one Spanish. Can’t wait!
Great sunset photos! Hope you didn't melt your shoes. My dogs would have been barkin' walking around on warm ground. Grande Tostadas!
Two posts in one day?! Awesome. Keep them coming . . . and don't forget the food pics : )
Amazing!
