Muddy waters

The pool's a bit dirty

Sitting in a mud volcano is weird. Very weird.

You find yourself adopting a squat position whilst suspended in a pit of gloop to stop you rolling face-forward into the mud. It's also strange not knowing how deep it is as you sit surrounded by thick grey mud and other mud men and women.

It's very relaxing until you try and move, when you feel like you're learning to swim all over again and start splashing your arms up and down as you attempt to steer through the thick mud. It's pointless though. The best way to manoeuvre is to lie back and let one of the tourists / masseurs push you along the surface (see example below) and get slotted next to another grey figure.
