The Arenal Volcano is the only volcano in Costa Rica constantly active since it woke up after 400 years. It is considered one of the ten most active volcanoes in the world.

My lovely wife, Jacki, and I had the privilege to visit Costa Rica in August of 2005.  Jacki’s father, Henry, was born in Costa Rica, and we had a chance to visit with family and tour the country with Henry and  Alex, Jacki’s mother.
