Day 6: Glacial Springs
*Mega Sigh*
We just wandered down to the Glacial Hot Springs, about 5 minutes walk from our motel. It's open until 10:00pm and we got there about 9:30pm. It's $26 per adult but they let us in for free since it was so close to closing. It was SO nice. The pools are like standard resort wading pools, all terraced and smoothly cast, with big rock features and stuff. But there's no walls/ceiling. Means it's ridiculously fucking cold, but the water is heated. So we just spent 25 minutes quietly simmering in heated glacier water, looking out at the stars and surrounded by rainforest with soft mood lighting, and 5 minutes dancing around like maniacs trying to dry ourselves in Olympic qualifying time. I had ice in my hair from dunking my head!
