La Fortuna Part 2
This morning I awoke at about 5 am to witness a beautiful sunrise over Volcan Arenal. The sky was clear and blue, with a large puffy white smokestack of steam arising from the crater. Sometimes I wonder when how many pictures are enough to capture the beauty.
Yesterday afternoon we took a hike down to the Catarata, or waterfalls. this protected area is in primary rainforest and meets all definitions of "tropical". The steam was full of what looked like trout, and the waterfall, at a height of about 150 feet, was stunning. Again, too many pictures were taken. Emily as usual was patient and gave me the time to go photo crazy.
Tonight we are changing our arrangements and staying at the Los Lagos Lodge, directly at the bottom of the lava flow. We are hoping to see some really fabulous lava flows tonight. We have bottle of Ravenswood wine we have carried this far and expect to enjoy it under the glow of the volcano.
Tomorrow--no plans. Stay tuned,

Hi you two!!
Please ask Emily again; I am sure she said the second best Caesar Salad!!??
Benedikte and I came back from Northern Caliornia yesterday. We had 3 great days with better weather than I had expected. We stayed the first night in Weaverville, where they had a really good restaurant in this little Hick Town of 3,500 souls. The next day we went to the coast to Arcata where we tried to get into Abruzzo, that Klaus knows, since we have had lunch there before. Unfortunately they did not serve lunch, so we went next door (on the Plaza), but I forgot the name.
Then on to Mendocino where we stayed at the Mendocino Hotel. Then home to pick Nuller up at the Cat Resort. She was happy to get home again.
"That's it folks"
Love dad and Jeppe
PS. Let me know if you get this stuff. I don't know if it just goes out into cyber space and gets lost.
