Another excursion that we did as a group was climbing the volcano Pacaya. On the way up there were people with horses offering rides (for a price of course). I enjoyed their jokes about having the most environmentally friendly taxis in the world and petted their horses whenever we took a break. Seeing the volcanic rock and lava was incredible. Feel the heat from the volcano while feeling the cold from the high altitude breeze was a contrast that I can't find words for. I hope to go back at night next year because then the lava is more visible.
