Kawah Ratu Crater

On a recent trip we went to Mt. Tangkuban Perahu and the Kawah Ratu crater.  We also went to Kawah Upas where you stand between two big craters and Kawah Domas where you can walk on the volcanic rock.  This is a big tourist attraction.  The craters are active with steam coming out and the smell of sulfur in the air.  The elevaton is about 6800 ft. above sea level.  It was very windy and cool.  It felt great!

Gail and Sister Meredith standing at the edge of the crater.  Don't they look nice with thier "windy" hair styles!

This is along the crater on the way to Kawah Upas---you can buy about any type of sovnier or food.  Note the steam coming up from behind the buildings on the left.

Walking to Kawah Domas.  It is always green in Indonesia!

This is Kawah Domas where you can get upclose and personal with volcanic activity.  In the upper left hand corner you can see someone with their feet in the warm, muddy water.
