Arenal Volcano Watching in Costa Rica
June 14th, 2011
Those of you who subscribe to my Twitter account (right side >>>) received the word about ten days ago that tha Observatorio Vulcanológico y Sismológico, the volcano watching people, have set up a web cam so they can see what’s a happenin‘. You can too. Just click here!
Arenal is a favorite tourist spot. It is always erupting and has been for years… though some eruptions are more interesting than others.
During the rainy season (now) Arenal volcano watching can be pretty boring… but if that thing goes off, it’s a good show. Also, it is often clear late at night. Worth an occasional visit. It refreshes every ten seconds.
Hint! If you want to get my other updates that do not sometimes make the blog immediately or ever, Follow Me on Twitter.

June 19th, 2008
Tourism is getting big boost these days as travelers from all over the world are descending on Costa Rica to see the Arenal Volcano, always a big draw at any time.
Lately, the active volcano has been strutting her stuff, and this has been going on for some weeks now. Customers of mine witnessed a fine show just this week.
The volcano is near the town of La Fortuna de San Carlos, about three hours northwest of San Jose by car. We go fairly often and rooms are always easy to get, especially now in the low season. The beds in many of the hotels are positioned so you can watch it at night. Beats Leno!
Wanna see something cool? Come take a peak! Bring the camera.
