... molds of people who were killed by the eruption centuries ago. The most capturing one was of a man on his knees praying. Basically the lava hardened around these victims, and when the body decomposed it left an empty cavity. These cavities were found and filled with clay molds. So tragic!
On our way back to the hostel we found a stray dog (Jordan toldme not to pet him) and I named him Boss. There are stray dogs everywhere! After we ate ...
