We left the stream of Jeeps driving
down the rim to enter our roadside stop.
Vera treated us to a breakfast
picnic:
fresh bread, jam, bananas, hard
boiled eggs, hot tea and coffee.
. .
Nearby were corn vendors - smelled
great!

vegetation below.
Sue-On had a chance to walk among
Brugmansias or Trumpet plants on the roadside!
The blossoms had a nice fragrance,
once we got past the exhaust from all the Jeeps and motorbikes.

After breakfast Bill hiked to
a mountain-side look-out pagoda

Views of the road we had travelled.

Looking down across Sea of Sand
to the volcano we were about to climb --
unfortunately suddenly emitting
gases.

Back to the Jeep for the drive
