Manuel Antonio Nat’l Park
This is Costa Rica’s most famous national park. It teems with wildlife and has a beautiful setting between hills and pristine beaches.Like this one. So here was my misconception of the wildlife. It seemed like they’d be on display. Nope. They are shy and usually hidden by dense underground. That’s where your guide comes in. Here is Aaron. Our guide for March 3rd! Patrice is watching him while he quickly and skillfully sets up his telescope to quickly capture some wildlife in his lense.
So… the best way to see the wildlife is thru his lens. Here is a monkey we have only seen at the park.
We also saw sloths and iguanas. Here’s one on the beach:
By the Time this trip ended, the temperature had climbed to well over 90 degrees. And we were ready to come home. Here we are, leaving and dying for a cold drink.
Chillin at Si Como No
We had a late lunch if leftovers from dinner. We were so beat by the heat we took a long siesta in the afternoon. Sadly, our travel partners Ed and Julie were called home due to a family emergency. So dinner was just a quick pizza by the pool while Ed made last minute travel changes. On the way for pizza, Patrice found this interesting bottle sign/sculpture.
