UGANDA	Visit also Nelson Eby's page!
	Alan R. Woolley, Nelson Eby, Felicity Lloyd and me, spent 30 days in the field in western Uganda in January of 1997.
Great people, great landscape and incredible volcanic rocks. We first visited the Fort Portal and Kasekere areas, which are impressive for the fantastic number of beautiful fresh tuff-cones of calcite-carbonatite.

	A special place is the cave in the Kalyango carbonatite lava-flow. There's a waterfall and karst features which make the atmosphere terrific (right picture).

LANZAROTE
A place that I particularly like is Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. I find it an excellent place  to see a lot of very fresh, magnificent volcano structures, but most importantly to see the influence of volcanoes on  human beings. The island is a perfect combination of volcanoes, wildlife, arts and history. I brought students of the volcanology course in Lanzarote once or twice a year.
	The students and me briefing at the Aula de la Naturaleza de la Casa de los Volcanos in Maguez, Haria.
	The students slowly climbing  Pico Partido volcano in the Timanfaya national park.
	Lava channel on the Pico Partido slope. It drained an ephemeral lava lake accumulated in one of the sub terminal craters. Emitted lavas are melanephelinites rich in peridotite nodules.
	The so-called Caldera de los Cuervos. Obviously it is not a caldera but a scoria cone. The top of the volcano is covered by spectacular spatter scorias.
	A vent in the Tinguaton crater (1824 eruption). It produced a big water fontain at the end of the eruption producing a small lahar. Strange but true!
	Our camp in Lanzarote on the slope of the La Corona volcano next to Maguez, Haria. We couldn't want more.
	How can we forget our food, wine, songs and dances?  a traditional Central Italy dance, La Saltarella.
