Roadtrip: Hot Springs

The afternoon we arrived we decided to hit the hot springs. This place is pretty famous around here and quite expensive, but beautiful and worth it. 

 Hiking in...

 This water is boiling hot. The steam sprays out through rocks.

this explains what happens during a hydrothermal explosion, when they have occurred before, etc. CRAZY

We paid to swim. Some pools were hotter than others, it was all refreshing!

 Of course there was a kids play area...which was great!

We ate dinner here too and then went back to the house to bundle up, chit chat with Poppy and CC and climb in the warmed up beds!
