Finally I got a volcano. A real one. And really close.
Walking over black lava rubble up the volcano to get close to the glowing red, super-hot lava was pretty exciting! Especially because we kept hearing some explosions behind the mountains of black lava stone.
And then we saw the lava stream, flowing fast downhill, making the air whir with heat.
The closer we got the more we could feel the heat and with the wind coming from the opposite direction we also caught a fair amount of sulfur vapor before we left the hot ground and made our way back to safer areas...
Thanks to Kaddi, Victor and Leah for taking me!
