A Volcano Trip
Sue Raines (saraines@mindspring.com)

Welcome to a virtual field trip tour of a volcano.
Join me on a trip deep below the earth's surface where volcanoes form.  Then visit some of the world's most
spectacular volcanoes.  Included are student pages,
teacher pages, and the actual field trip.  Sit back and
enjoy the explosive tour.  Have a great time.
