A few weekends ago, we hiked a volcano named Pacaya. It is suppose to be one of the easier ones. For me, it was a challenge. I attempted to walk up the volcano for about 20 minutes, and then I gave in to temptation and purchased a horse for the rest of the trip up.
For those of you who know me wll, you nw that I have never even been close to a horse before. They scare me! I quickly overcame my fears and hopped my fat butt up on top of the horse, Carmello. He was a smooth walker, and I even learned how to start and stop him. It was one of the most relaxing parts of the trip.
We arrived at this plateau for lunch, and the view was beautiful. It was so majestic and peaceful. After lunch, we started on our adventure of crossing the volcanoe. This means we had to slide down one side covered in ash and rock, and then cross the barren lands to actually come face to face with lava. LAVA PEOPLE!
We got to a spot we were comfortable, and roasted marshmallows and made mini smores! It was a blast. By the end of the trip, we were all exhausted, but it was a great day.
I know words cannot trully do it justice, so I have incorporated a video for your pleasure. I hope you enjoy it!
