Yesterday we climbed Cerro Chatto Volcano in La Fortuna. It was a tough uphill climb but our team, now super fit climbed it in a record of 2 hours with the help of guide William, a sweet man who used to live in the rainforest and claimed he climbed Arenal Volcano (THE BIG ONE!) illegally 8 times. He showed us how to be tarzan by swinging on vines through the rainforest, luckily none of our clumsiness affected our challenge. Once we reached the top we were greeted by a magnificent view of the volcano crater and some of us were lucky to climb a tree and be blown away by the gorgeous, pituresque view of the lagoon. we stopped for lunch, took beautiful photos and then descended back down the volcanoe. On our journey back we were greeted by a american couple who thought we were a church group we replied NO WERE FAT CAAAAMP! YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN US WHEN WE ARRIVED! In the midst of our laughter we carried on the journey down singing shine jesus shine, carrying long man made walking sticks, eagerly sprinting to get to the hotsprings.
The baldi hot springs awaited us as we practically tore off our sweaty muddy trekking gear and got into our bikinis and climbed into the various lush hot springs and then hit the water slides where we reached 45km per hour. We all came out in hilarious poses and screeches as we hit or bombed into the water. We got out and went to dinner which was an all you can eat buffet and by the end we all had to waddle out carrying our food babies AKA as Gordy would say DEXTER and his evil twins.
We finished the night off with a couple of milkshakes and cokes at Arenal and then jumped into bed.
BUENAS NOCHES
