We had scheduled to go on a canopy tour with the hotel receptionist. It was only $65 U.S. dollars and it involved transportation to and from the site, about 2 hour canopy tour and a Costa Rican lunch. We left at 10am to go on the 50 minute shuttle ride into the rain forest. We got there and got hoo…

At are recent San Francisco meetup we had a chance to meet Matt (mpope9).  Then a few days he won the Photographers award by posting all the great shots he had taken of the meetup and San Francisco.  Well, when going through his gallery I spotted one particular shot that just begged for m…

Going from Manue Antonio to San Josè was far from the smooth easy ride we were expecting. The day before we had talked to this really crazy tourist information guy in Manuel Antonio that was arranging the bus for us to go to Arenal. Why we trusted him I do not understand when looking back on it. I…

I set out from the hostel about 09.00, slightly later than I'd hoped, and walked up to the bus stop. The sun was already high in the sky and beating down.The bus pulled up, already absolutely packed and I climbed on, for the journey to Manual Antonio I was forced to stand on the bottom step, half h…

Posiblemente fue este el día más aburrido, desesperante e indignante de las tres semanas que duró el viaje a Costa Rica y Bocas del Toro. Por no haber, no hubo ni una sola fotografía…   La cosa no había quedado tan mal la noche anterior cuando Pedro nos comentó que iba a intentar co…

My vacation to Costa Rica in the raining season. We were also a few days in Panama. I travelled in a group with 25 persons. I loved it !! About the speed in Costa Rica and Panama: someone told me there that you have slow, than slower, then slowest. After that you get Costa Rica and finally Panama. ;)))

We went to Quepos and Manuel Antonio for a week of sunning, zip lining, hiking, and sight seeing.

We stayed a second day in Crapos, not sure why although the small swimming pool at the hostel was probably something to do with it. We took a bit of a walk over the hill into Manuel Antonio and found somewhere for us to stay (manuel antonio is not really a cheap place to stay with double rooms at t…

Its always fun seeing something new when you are diving in the same places. It just adds something when you are diving with people that will actually appreciate it. I have already resigned myself to the fact that noone diving around here gets excited about nudibranchs as i do but I am determined in…

Friday We see Roger, the past owner of Plinio's here visiting and partying with Hans and another guy from Spain they haven't seen in 10 yrs. Got some real rain during breakfast. Sun is out again, and we're reading on the porch. I am having a laundry done and just put 5 pictures on my apple lapto…
