We went to Cartagena, Colombia. (Side note: if you have never been there, you MUST add it to your bucket list! And call me first - I will give you the skinny on where to go, what to do. LOOOOOVED it!!!)
Anywho, while there, my husband and I heard about this medicinal volcano where you can physically go down inside of it and waller around (high-five to all you Southerners out there who know what that means) for as long as your little heart desires.
Medicinal volcano? With skin healing and beautifying powers?? Um, yes, please! Sign me up!
Once you arrive at said volcano, you have to go up just a few poorly constructed stairs to enjoy the benefits.
Right before you surrender your life to the bottomless volcano (Yes, bottomless. As in, there is no end to the depths of this volcano. Just like my love for my husband. :), your personal guide snaps a quick photo. Say "Cheeeeese - Lord, let me live!"
My husband was/is a little more adventurous than me, as you can see in his excitement here.
I, however, had to be gingerly coerced into the mouth of this volcano. Hence my backwards approach to the stairs.
Once in the mud, it wasn't that bad. Actually, it was quite amazing! The mud is so dense, yet simultaneously very watery, that you just somehow magically float in it. (I'm sure there's some scientific explanation about this, but I wasn't there for a science lesson - I was there for beauty - so I didn't ask.) While floating, these angels, if you will, come over and, uninvitedly, just start massaging you. No complaints here! Rub away!
After our massages, we just relaxed in the mud and gave each other facials.
After about 20 minutes in the volcano (well, there's a sentence I never thought I would say), we decided that was enough time to absorb the benefits without testing nature. As you exit the volcano, a kind volunteer gives you a quick wipe down as you head down to the river to rinse off.
Aren't we sexy???
I felt like we looked like Avatar here! ("Romes calls me skxawng. It means 'moron.'" Lol!)
Once down at the river, these women come and rinse you off. They even, again, uninvitedly, remove your ENTIRE swimsuit and rinse that off for you as well. How…sweet…of…them. Luckily, the water was pretty murky so no one saw our "hidden treasures." Ha!
All clean and all smiles!
A quick dry off and then off to enjoy some local brew!
You can see the volcano behind us in this pic.
