Last weekend we took a CIEE trip to another volcano, this time Volcan Mombacho, an inactive volcano near the colonial city of Granada, about an hour outside of Managua.
Mombacho has been inactive for a long time- I don't know how long it's been in years, but in the time since its last eruption an entire jungle has grown and thrived inside of its cloud-filled crater. It was cloudy, green and chilly- I felt so at home!
