Costa Rica 2006
Ok, here we go again - back to Costa Rica.   But this time, we traveled up to the hilly, rainy, beautiful area of Monteverde.   This area is absolutely unbelievable. It is home to many varieties of insects, birds, mammals and hundreds of plants and trees. We encountered howler monkeys, orange-kneed tarantulas, several species of hummingbirds, two-toed sloths, walking sticks, coati, gray fox and even an eyelash pit viper (way up in the trees, thank goodness).

The Sky Walk high up in the trees and walking on the suspension bridges was a great way to end a wonderful, trip.  And once again, the people here are very friendly and helpful to the “obvious tourists” that we are.   As I said before, I will be making another trip to this awesome country.
