Over the past day and half … I’ve been doing as much as I can to learn of things to do in a cool weekend in Nicaragua. I’ve learn’t that there are lots of volcanoes over there, as the name “Nicaragua” means the land of lakes and volcanoes.
True to its country’s nickname, the town of Leon is surrounded by a number of volcanoes, many of them still active and Cerro Negro, has recently become very popular on the backpacker trail as a place where one can climb to the top and descend on a toboggan down the pumice-y slopes on small wooden board at breakneck speed.
Now this tobogganing isn’t the gay German version shown here in CBS.
Yes, volcano tobogganing = volcano boarding. Down an active volcano = AWESOME!
These guys have written an excellent blog post on it … so time to add it to my bucket list … 
… now I ha ve something to write about in addition to churches in Leon!
