Volcanoes, Volcanoes, Volcanoes...Granada and Ometepe
After backpacking volcan el Hojo, I spent a night in Leon and headed to Granada with Linda and Miriam. There we met up with some of their friends, one of which, Roberto, was a granada local. the next day Roberto took us on a secret trail up volcan Mombacho. The hike was supposed to take two hours but ended up taking about 6. Along the hike we got to eat many wild fruits and even got to try the fruit of coffee beans. The views from the top of the volcano were beautiful and we could see granada and out over lake Nicaragua. After the steep hike down we indulged in a large meal at the Granada market. The next day we headed to Isla de Ometepe to climb to San Ramon Waterfall on the Maderas Volcano. After a good night sleep, we headed up to the waterfall and bathed in the pool at the bottom. The waterfall was beautiful and refreshing and we had it all to ourselves. Today i left Ometepe and parted ways with Linda, Miriam and the others to return to playa santana and popoyo for a week of surfing.
