Josh's parents and Aunt Frida came to visit and we rented a great big car and drove to La Fortuna where Arenal Volcano towers over the town. It is an actual active volcano.
We almost ran out of gas and there were no gas stations around so after asking several helpful Ticos, we found this women's house who had gas in containers and we bought half a tank from her.
Good thing we rented a 4x4. The bridge leading to our hotel was out.
We were really lucky to see this much of the volcano. During the day it is totally covered with clouds. I cleared a little right before dark and we were able to get some pictures. The real show starts at night when yo can actually see the lava running down the side. It was spectacular but unfortunately I was unable to capture that with my camera.
