Santa Cruz

I'm now at the Iguana Perdida hostel in the village of Santa Cruz on the northern side of the lake. This place is even more chilled than San Pedro but also even more picturesque. I took a hike up the mountain behind the hostel yesterday afternoon to take some photos only to discover on my return that my camera has been set on its lowest resolution for the last week or so. Oops. So my apologies if some of the pics I've loaded don't enlarge too well. I wondered why they all loaded so fast!

I also got up for the sunrise this morning only to find it rises behind some mountains around the corner so I couldn't even see it... I obviously haven't been drinking enough of the local coffee! But I took some high res pictures anyway.

The first water taxi of the day heads for Santa Cruz

The view from the hostel about an hour ago, the volcano on the left is actually three in a line... beautiful!

This afternoon Tiff and I are keen to go do some cliff jumping... it looks pretty high though!
