Hi friends...
So the sad news is that none of the internet places have a spot to upload pics. Bummer! So I will post this weekend once I´m back in town.
The last few days have been awesome. Here are a few highlights...
1. Monday´s beach day in Manuel Antonio turned into a beach monsoon. And we were the talk of the town when we went running through the streets during the downpour under 1 poncho (yes, two people in one plastic see-thru poncho). Watch for the pics on this one.
2. Tuesday we traveled by bus up to La Fortuna-Arenal area. We swam in the natural hot springs & Dominique had her Costa-Rican water slide/enema experience. (yep... should have learned from last year in Guatemala never to trust a foreign water slide!).
3. We´ve been staying in hostels. Tuesday night we were in a dorm room that slept 8 - the two of us plus 6 19-year old guys from England... make that... 6 STINKY guys from England. They´ve been traveling for 3 weeks & the stench is unbelievable. Both Domi & I slept with shirts over our faces as an odor filter. :)
4. Wednesday we took a bus then boat to Santa Elena-Monteverde area (and we were stuffed in a 9-person micro-bus with the stinky Brits! Although it made for an entertaining ride). It is so beautiful here. Best part of the trip! We did a zip line canopy tour. It was amazing! And at the end there was a terrifying tarzan swing thru the trees (with a huge drop). Watch for video on this one.
5. And this morning we hiked through the Santa Elena Reserve, which included 8 hanging suspension bridges, the highest being over 500 ft off the ground. It was spectacular.
So we´ll be back on the bus shortly for the 5 hour ride to return to San Jose. We fly home tomorrow. Why does vacation always go so fast?
