Yesterday we climed laguna chicabal--a magical lake nestled in the crater of the (now inactive) volcano Chicabal. Mind you I don´t use the term "magical" lightly--it actually is consered a sacred and holy place for the Mayans who come here for meditation and to perform Mayan ceremonies. No one is allowed to enter the lake for any purpose, as it apparently, besides having magical powers, has somehow connects to the Pacific Ocean... (because we are foreigners, we just tend to belive anything we hear)
Minus the feeling of lack of oxygen and possible imminent death, it was spectacular, and was worth the effort, as it always is.
