Greetings from Monteverde in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica. Unfortunately I don’t have the same quality internet connection that I’ve been lucky to secure in the rest of CR so this blog will be quite short and probably not updated again this week. So, unfortunately no photos, at least today.
The pace of our trip has increased a bit, and that’s saying something given the high pace prior to this point. On Tuesday we traveled in vans from the Arenal region of CR to Monteverde. As the crow flies it’s about 22 miles but we drive for 5 hours on super bumpy, rocky roads. Needless to say, we were happy when we finally arrived. Monteverde is famous for its cloud forest, a unique eco-region that houses some of the world’s greatest biodiversity. We at about 4700ft and hiked to over 5200ft up in the mist and thick forest. In addition to looking for all the critters in the forest, we also visited a K-11 Eco School.
We’ll be here in Monteverde till Friday when we head back to San Jose ready to fly back to the U.S.A. early on Saturday morning.
Pura Vida!
