“Nice view of the erupting Volcano”

Another nice hotel quite luxurios compared to the last two night in the Laguna Lodge in Tortuguero National Park.

AC and TV (Yes I am back to civilization! :-)
And finally I can dry my laundry.

Huge bathrooms! Really do they need that much room? They could have spring for a soaker tub and jacuzzi yet they did not. I wonder if they changed their mind afterward. They could use it in the room although they were spacious already. The grounds are amazing and the hotel has a very good vantage point of the volcano. It is so close that you could hear it go off and the shock wave actually cracked the windows facing the volcano.

The Restaurant is very nicely located with an uninterrupted view of the valley and the Volcano as well.

Golf Cart system to drive you around the property-So I heard as I never got to use it.

As it got dark and started pouring rain, we thougt it would be a good idea to start the 3 1/2 hour drive to Arenal along windy dirt mountain roads. Alex didn't kill us, and we made it to Hotel Arenal Manoa, another nice hotel. The rooms are individual cabins, which rocking chairs on the porch. Some rooms have a volcano view, and the restaurant is …

... at our hostel. It was the brother of the guy in Monteverde, so another fab little find.

We were both glad that we didn't take the longer cheaper bus route but later found out that in 1979 the lake was tripled in size as part of a hydroelectric project which now generates an impressive 70% of the country's electricity,. The old towns of Arenal and Tonadora now lie abandoned at the bottom of the lake.

Walked around the town, a little bigger ...

... for a while and was close enough to identify him as a 3-toed sloth, although one of his 12 toes appeared to be missing. We suppose that if sloths had a number system it would either be base-12 or base-8, depending on their species (oblique reference to Multiplication Rock).

The family all met up at the campo for breakfast. The staff, Darlene and Patricia brought out a lovely spread. We started with fresh fruit: papaya, mango, pineapple ...
