(5/28/2012) This past weekend we took a trip to Arenal Volcano and spent time in the hot water springs. This was probably the most amazing resort I have ever been to. The hot springs were beautiful and our view of the volcano was breathtaking. I did not know I could take so many pictures in two days. We spent all of Saturday at the springs and ate dinner at the resort. We also met some more students from CPI that stayed with our host families in Heredia the week we left. The next morning only two other girls and myself went on a hike around Sendero Silencio with our wonderful guide Javier. I am really glad we went on this hike; it was a great experience that I would have kicked myself had I missed out on it. After the hike we were able to spend about an hour in the hot springs before we had to check out of our rooms. I hate that we only stayed one night; this trip was so relaxing it definitely should have been at least a two night stay. I plan on coming back to La Fortuna soon, it was that amazing. I also hate that the majority of my group did not want to come on the hike; it really was a great experience they will never get to have.
