Today I got to experience something so amazing! After having a wonderful breakfast we took the bus to Poas Volcano National Park where we got to see this beautiful volcano which is known for its famous massive lake-filled crater. I learned that the lake that is on top of the volcano rests upon a cooled column of magma. The volcano contains one of the most acidic crater lakes in the world. We then hiked and visited a lake called Botos that was also a part of the park which had such amazing scenery. The water, the plants, the sky, and everything was just so beautiful.
After visiting these nice places, we went to La Selva, which is the rainforest, where we are staying in cabins for the days we are here. I was really, really scared. I had a panic attack because I was in the rainforest! The great teachers that attended the trip with us made sure I was okay and we went night hiking with an expert who knew so much about the forest. I was scared at first but then I loosened up a bit. I had a very scary, but fun, night.
