This is Jen calling! helloooo!

yes, Baños is Spanish for Baths you know, and unlike Bath in Blighty, the water is heated by a very very active volcano. as if! We didnt have time or the stomach to head up to the crater to see the lava, but we prob will next time, when we can actually read the danger reports which are in Spanish.

Sorry for no pics btw, this cafe doesnt have the bits we need.

The craziest thing was the permanent smoke rising from the mountains around the volcano, it seemed like smoke but we hope it was just evaporation!

And who would have thunk it; chilling on a volcano one day, then hop on a bus and head six hours downhill, past waterfalls at least 100 METRES high and in the words of mr axl rose himself....

WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE!

and here we are, about to embark on a three day jungle and rafting adventure! WOO-HOO!

will post all the news on wednesdayish, and hopefully some pics too!
