Paradise
This is a top pick! ... Antonio is PARADISE!!! We fell in love at first sight. We spend our last 6 days relaxing on the beaches and enjoying life. Costa Verde's theme is "More Monkey's than People", and they are right. Each morning, we were greeted by an abundance of white face ...

Redneck Riviera
This is a top pick! ... . But, also, time has probably changed Costa Rica. I will likely be reluctant to return anytime soon. ----------- Part of Costa Rica's strength is due to a fascinating social experiment that they started in 1948 when they abolished their army. I ...
Sick of bloody monkeys
This is a top pick! ... house and turn our back on susan (the sloth) but we had to go. Feeling like we should at least see some other place in Costa Rica, we pushed on to Manuel Antonio National Park just 100ks up the coast (and a five hour bus journey of course). As with ...
Inbetween visa runs!

Day 12: Monteverde to Quepos

Manuel Antonio National Park
We spent the day in Manuel Antonio National Park. It is one of Cosa Ricaīs smallest parks, but also a favorite. We hiked into a small, rocky, beautiful beach and played in the warm ocean and ate our lunch. We continued hiking up to the vista that ...
Domesticity

... the gateway to Manuel Antonio National Park. I should mention that there are a lot of national parks and conservation areas in Costa Rica; this is, of course, a good thing, because this is an insanely, intensely beautiful country with an incredible number ...
Leaving the Nest
I've been in Costa Rica for what will be 2 weeks tomorrow. I haven't done much aside from go to the beach, drink beer, swim in the pool, drink vodka, walk/glide in the jungle, drink tequila. I've been at casa de Jill through the stays of Linda ...

Where the Wild Things Are...Manuel Antonio

A SNAKE IN THE BEDROOM!
... San Jose we had to wait two hours before taking a private plane to Quepos which is again on the Pacific Coastline but in Central Costa Rica. The flight was to last about twenty minutes but as soon as we hit the clouds the heavens opened up and did not ...
Crazy work week and then off to the beach
