"Safety on an active volcano cannot be guaranteed. Volcanoes can produce large eruptions without warning. Visiting an active volcano is like lying down of a freeway. If you stay there long enough you will be killed."

"The best way to truly soar on your volcano tours however, is by helicopter. Flying over the unending flow of Kilauea Volcano is like getting a birds-eye view of creation itself. Seeing the molten lava and geysers of steam from a helicopter is a volcanic experience without parallel."

What: "A simplified way to think of a volcano is like a champagne bottle with a cork. Keep that cork on and the bubbles in the champagne stay in solution. However, you remove that cork and all the dissolved carbon dioxide comes out of solution and bubbles form. Release that pressure fast enough and the bubbles form so quickly that you get that "pop" from the bottle."

"A volcano is like a hissing cobra,
Tall and swaying high,
It slithers down the steep hill,
Waiting to spit at all the people to kill them And watch them die."....The link is to a page of creative writing about volcanoes.

What: "A maar volcano is like a huge volcanic burp. With a maar volcano, magma flowing to the surface did not reach the top to create a cinder cone or lava flow. Instead the magma flow became blocked and the available ground water then became super-heated. The resulting steam pressure eventually became so great that it blew off the covering mantle and left a huge flat-floor crater."

"A volcano is like a candle, one year the lava drips on one side, the next year it drips on the other. We visited in March 2004, and stayed at the Hotel Arenal Los Lagos on the north face and could see the lava from our bed!"

"If you imagine a volcano is like a tube of toothpaste then a lava dome is like the congealed, dried toothpaste that has come out of the tube. It doesn't move like a lava flow but grows from the inside as new magma comes up and pushes the already cooled magma upwards and outwards"
