The Poás Volcano Lodge's small dairy farm and garden supply the kitchen with ingredients for the hearty breakfast: fresh juice, fresh milk and eggs, freshly made granola, incredible fruit plate, etc. After breakfast we drive to Poás Volcano National Park, which is also a cloud forest environment. Poás is a semi-conical volcano, with several cauldrons at the top. We all hike up the path to the amazingly eerie main crater, which is difficult to capture in its entirety in a photo because of its sheer size and because it's often shrouded in sulfur gas clouds. Aaron and Tiffany hike through stunted forest up and over to Laguna Botos--a cold, clear lake in an extinct crater also covered with clouds. Then it's time to drive down into the valley toward the airport, which is only an hour away. We are unanimously sad to have to end this great trip and to know that even if we return here for every future vacation, we'll never be able to see all of Costa Rica's natural wonders.
