abbie versus the volcano

ok, so here are the photos of last weekend that you've been waiting for!!


we traveled to volcano arenal on saturday and stayed at los lagos hotel and resort. gabi and i had a little cabana all to ourselves.


danielle and i drank out of pineapples!! yum!

after spending the evening in the natural spring-fed pools, we woke up early in the morning to hike to the observatory, which is as close as you can get to the volcano. it was a good thing we did, because for the rest of our stay, the volcano was hidden from view by clouds and fog. that morning, however, the view was spectacular!




the most memorable part of the weekend came next...we went on a zipline tour of the rainforest canopy. amazing! and i felt relatively safe the whole time. :)

outfitted in the harness and all, i managed to look pretty intimidating for once in my life.

i didn't even realize these photos were being taken...i just couldn't stop smiling! muy divertido!

the "superman" pose was probably the most exhilarating. i really felt like i was flying!


hard to believe there will be any photos better than these, but this weekend is BEACH weekend...so there will be some more amazing stuff to see, for sure! hasta luego!
