I think due to a snafu that occurred to my laptop while it was configured for the Semester at Sea voyage I lost the ability to post on my blog. So, I am a bit behind in my travelogue.  Last weekend after arriving in San Jose Sandy and I opted to join a small group of faculty and staff to travel to the Poas volcano. It is still an active volcano sitting at about 7,700 feet. Fortunately it was merely giving off steam the day we were there.

Replica of old wagon wheel

On our way back to the hotel we stopped to see how the old and very pretty wagon wheels were made.
