Very good journey via Miami. Immigration made easy by automated machines: in 20 minutes we pass thru.
Arrival at 9 pm in San José and dinner with Sprungs.
Trip on the Caribbean side in a marshy area on the border of Nicaragua with boat ride
and adequate number of birds, alligators, lizards and monkeys.
We also see a sloth - obviously still.
After returning spa time for the ladies.
Excursion - course in the rain - in the Park with monkeys, waterfalls and a little shy agouti.
Great pizza in Liberia and transfer to the Blue River Resort.
Horseback riding (Nanda and Leo) or by car (Gilda and Warren) always in the rain.
Maybe the Leo's birthday and the wonderful lamp - Warren gift - but this is the best place to eat of all the trip.
Beautiful garden and again thernal mud for the ladies.
Long transfer to Monteverde to find abundant rain on arrival.
We must accept we're back in an a little more touristy area.
Nice ride on suspension bridges over the forest canopy and long zip-line tour.
Excellent dinner downtown and even better Costarican snack.
We leave at dawn to Puntarenas to embarks Dive Cruise to Cocos Island.
36 hours of navigation and we arrive in a land forgotten by time: all the pelagic animals, the hammerhead sharks, the trevallies in huge schools require
a while to be metabolized. white tip sharks hunt by night imprinting our imagination as it haven't happened for a long time.
Canonical layover in Miami: night along Ocean Drive, dinner at Avalon since was too late for Joe's Stone Crab
Morming visit to Dolphin Mall: shopping frenzy intense but moderate.
