Volcanoes are Cool

Really, the title pretty much covers things.

We hiked the active volcano outside of town today and well... it was cool (and yet hot at the same time - you know: lava). There were 5 of us from the school and we had a nice little stroll (hike) up to just below the summit, where the lava was flowing out and down.





Supposedly, there's a great view from up there - on a normal day, but today was completely clouded over. In fact, the clouds were pushing right over us as we reached the top. I really "dug" it. I love being in the clouds (or fog, or whatever you want to call it) when I'm hiking. Oh, sure - I love a great view, but there's just something really cool about watching clouds roll by - right by.
