All successfully through Costa Rica customs - lots of pieces of paper needed!
We have just boarded the plane to Panama, with 30 minutes now to take off. We spent all our Costa Rica currency in the Duty Free!

Saturday
We are just leaving Monteverde. Every day is action-packed, so there's not always much chance to blog!
We set off on a hike with hanging bridges at 7am today! Everyone is in high spirits but sorry to be leaving Costa Rica.

Friday
We went caving in the morning and then trekking near the Arenal volcano. We spent the early evening at some hot springs and then had a lovely dinner.
Tomorrow we're off to Monteverde. We are all well and happy!

Hope you enjoy our random selection of photographs!!
Everyone is well and enjoying themselves - if a little tired and sunburnt.
We have had some exciting adventures on the zip-wires and sea kayaking. Today we had a lovely walk in the rain forest on the hanging bridges.
So far we have seen 4 sloths, a coati, several howler monkeys, humming birds, toucans, a barracuda, hundreds of migrating vultures, iguanas, a huge jumping silver fish about a metre long and almost as wide (unidentified!).........etc
The food has been excellent - we have tried Cuban and Costa Rican dishes. We have fresh fruit for breakfast every morning (a big hit!) so we are trying to be healthy.
The hotels have been good - tonight we are in small cabins overlooking the Arenal volcano (see photos) and the girls are looking forward to a swim in the pool.

We're now on our way to the Arenal volcano.
We have enjoyed a couple of days on the Caribbean coast - swimming, kayaking and zip-wiring! The weather is glorious!
