Sulfur Hot and Cold Springs
What a find? We went for a hike today in Rincon de La Vieja National Park near our home. We drove our quads to Hacienda Santa Maria which at one time in the sixties was the hunting lodge of US President Lyndon Johnson - lots of history. The lodge is now a museum with lots of interesting stuff. We left the Lodge and hiked for about 1 hour. We followed a beautiful hiking trail through the giant rainforest trees and found this little gem. Medicinal sulfur hots springs seeping from the ground heated by the volcano, right beside the hot water a beautiful fresh water creek with clean cool water. We had a great time going from one to the other. Little Nicholas of course preferred the hot water of the sulfur spring. Not sure of the medicinal effect as we spread the mud around. Seemed to really clean the skin according to Donna and Jessica. Another great little gem we found in this wonderful little country!
