Mud Pools

The Mud Volcanoe Monsters!!!

How do you get in a mud VOLCANO?? Well....... it is in the shape of a volcano (except heaps smaller) and the mud still bubbles but the mud is freezing cold. I was soooo surprised. I got completely covered in mud......... it was soooooooo fun.

It was cool cos the mud was quite thick and you could swim on the mud and you would float you wouldn't sink.

We had mini mud floating contests. Where we would have to swim from one side to the other. It was really funny cos you would be really pushing to move but you would only move about 2 mm in about 5 minutes. In the end we just swam around the edge.

All the local fishermen were staring at us..... I can't blame them really cos we must've looked soo funny coming down like mud creatures.

We made a mud slide aswell........ here's the secret just in case you find some mud volcanoes.... well what ya do is you pull away the edge from a bit and then push all the mud out it's really fun. But you have to soften the ground underneath the mud cos otherwise you get a big bruise on your butt like I did. We then went down to the Caspian sea to wash ourselves off.
