This spring we took off to the land of lush rainforests, unique wildlife, volcanoes, waterfalls, cloud forests, and the adrenaline rush of zip lining. Where else could that be….COSTA RICA!
Our first impression on landing in San Jose was “this country is awful.” Immediately upon checking into our hotel we hopped a cab to downtown for a “foodie” tour. An hour and a half to go 7 miles! Walking would have been better. The tour itself was great, food and atmosphere outstanding! But San Jose, not so. All part of seeing the country though.
Off to Arenal. We loved the town, restaurants, and activities. Our hotel was super nice, located at the base of the volcano. It was great drinking around the pool taking in all the beautiful scenery. The rainforest was cool, walking across hanging bridges, and scouting out all the native wildlife with the tour guide. Soaking in the hot springs here took away all the stress of driving through San Jose!
