Volcanic Worries in Indonesia

It seems like the volcanic threat to airlines across the world in2010 isn’t over yet. After the catastrophic affects that the Icelandic volcano eruption had, it seems that Mount Bromo in Indonesia might add to the list for this year. It had begun smoking after a yearlong break in activity. The country has experienced tremors and a small eruption has seen volcanic debris scattered across the island, with the local airport being forced to close.
The most well known volcano in the area; mount Bromo straddles the pacific ring of fire and is said to be one of the most volatile volcanoes. Other volcanoes in the ring are also dangerous, with mount Merapi exploding earlier this year, causing more than three hundred deaths and evacuating thousands of villagers in the area. Bromo is a sacred area for the locals, as on the fourteenth day of one of the Hindu festivals they travel up the mountain and leave gifts of fruit, rice, flowers and vegetables to the mountain gods by throwing them into the volcano. Some locals take on danger and climb into the crater in an attempt to recover the gifts, as this is seen as lucky and they are deemed to be blessed by the gods.
Java, Bali and the rest of Indonesia are often visited by British tourists in the months of November, December and January, to escape the cold of the UK and get some winter sun. If you have a trip booked then seek advice before travelling, and make sure that you have Travel Insurance in case of catastrophe.
