Hi Pete

It is a very baby volcano so I'm waiting for it to grow up a bit! Anyhow, the police have blocked all the roads into the area and so you can only see it from far away.

Here's a bit on youtube

And some stills:

It is about 2 hours drive from here so no view from my kitchen window :cry:

The lava has now run across a popular hiking trail so if you fancy walking that direction in the summer you could be on brand new rock!
