Volcano Irazu

Last Sunday, I joined Claire and her children for a trip to the Irazu volcano. Costa Rica has five volcanoes that are considered active. Irazu is the highest of these. It was a long, winding drive up the mountain and because it is so high, it was also quite chilly and drizzly. So, I froze my butt off, however, it was worth it for the view of the crater.



Claire had packed a picnic lunch, which we ended up eating in the car because it was too cold to eat outside. Thankfully, there was a coffee shop about 100 yards from the crater and we were able to get some hot drinks after our walk!
