Costa Rica Day 9

​Butterfly Garden 

After bidding a sad farewell to Ed and Julie we went across the street to check out the Sukia Butterfly Garden.And yes, I do know this is a cheesy picture. It wasn’t my idea.

The butterflies were in a huge screened enclosure. The Blue Morphos were the most difficult to photograph because their flight patterns were so random. So we pushed our cameras and skills to the max captured the following stills and one video.

The blue ones were so hard to capture in mid flight but here’s my best shot. The Blue Morphos weren’t the only stars of the garden. And this one too…

Here’s the only video on the blog. It’s really the only way to show the beauty of the Blue Morphos in flight. Tap the “Play” button and see them fly in slo-mo.

Nothing too exciting for the rest of the day. Lunch at  Emilio’s hanging out at the “adult” pool. We are basically trying to bypass Charlotte-in-July heat.

One Last Sunset

We’re taking in Happy Hour with one last sunset before we leave tomorrow.

The toucans keep flying in and out of the tree in the center.
