Roasting marshmallows on lava
Tomorrow morning at 6:00 am (which is 7:00 back in Valparaiso) Stacey and I leave for Pacaya, the only active volcano in Guatemala that they let you climb. From what we’ve been told, it’s about an hour and half to get there, two hours to climb it, then an hour to climb back down. Stacey bought marshmallows today, because we’ve been told that we can roast them on the lava. Don’t worry, we’ll be sure to take pictures!
Today we went to a Macadamia nut farm with a group from our language school. It was pretty interesting… and as soon as I’m able, I’ll upload pictures! To get there and back, we rode in what they call a “chicken bus.” Imagine a school bus painted in garish colors and then stuffed full of people, including people standing in the aisle and hanging out the door. That’s a chicken bus. We have pics of that, too.
Language school is going well. Today wrapped up our second full week. I’m hoping by the end of next week to have caught up with Stacey! We’ll see…
