Volcan Poas - wow



Well another day, another Volcano! After class I took a minibus with one other student (a really annoying English woman who insisted speaking English to the guide who spoke no English) to the nearby extinct volcano, Poas. Everyone I´ve spoken to about this volcano has said, "didn´t see anything". It´s a notoriously cloudy spot and the best time to go is very early, about 6am early. So we rolled up at 2pm...
We were extremely lucky, not only were the views amazing but the park was nearly empty as everyone visits in the morning.
We took some photo´s, smelt the sulphur and wandered on to a laguna made when an extinct volcano sealed over and formed from rainwater. Another great day.
