.... naw, that ain't it... that's just another island that blew it's
top... Dominica is further to the right by 30 minutes? or so..... |
| ...Here we go, a close dive spot just 20 minutes by boat.... little
village on the beach, deep waters just off the coast there... |
 |
 |
Here's the Hotel and Boats. There is diving off the dock and some
people only came out of the water for meals.... |
| ...Just an idea of the waters... taken by a Photographair-Extrodinair....
apx 80 feet down? |
 |
 |
Another Dive spot... heheh kinda silly showing this as you can't see
nut'n.... oh well you'll get the idea of the drop offs to 2,000-3,000ft with the cliff
above water... |
| ...and of course the hike.... to the Boiling Lake... apparently only one
of 2 in the world...(New Zealand?).. Rain the majority of the time, but coming from
Seattle, heheh what's new.... |

The Sweet Smelling Steam Vents.... from an eruption back July.... of this
year... 3 months ago... kinda crusty on the top... and the water IS HOT!!!! apparently
someone fell through to thigh high, just before.. not a pleasant situation... on to
boiling lake we go.... |
...Nope, this isn't the boiling lake... but couldn't resist this one for
the colors.... nice job ..... No pic of Boiling Lake as it was pretty much fogged/steamed
in... but did catch a good look at it... and yup, 'tis a boiling, right in the middle of
it... big lake, could throw a rock just about halfway....
It's a long hike, up and down, so if you're in some sort of shape, do it... it's one of
those things that you're glad you did it, but not while you're doing it... ;-)) |
