Lava Lovers

YES Babies,

PACAYA is the name. The Guatemaltec city of Antigua is situated between 3 Volcanos, of which one really active. Last eruption: August 2006. But that obviously doesn't withhold the locals from organising hikes.

We don't know about you guys, but standig close to actual 1000ÂșC hot lava was something on our list. Even when standing meters away, the heat is nearly unbearable. And not without risk, because you could actually see the streams of lava underneath the very rocks we were standing on!



We concluded the day by enjoying a free performance of the world famous Buena Vista Social Club in Antigua's Estudio 35.
