... eco farm called el zopilote, sleeping in hammocks for 4 days (literally half the price). It was a realy beautiful island, and we spent time working, hiring bikes and walking to a waterfalls near by. The eco lodge we stayed at was all self sustainable, so you had compost toilets, they produced all their own food etc. It was quite a walk up the hill for about 25 minutes to the hostel though, and the ...

... und fragen bei den Parkwaecht**n nach ein** festen Behausung, die zum Glueck auch tatsaechlich v**fuegbar ist. Beim hin- und h**fahren kommen wir nur ganz langsam vorwa**ts, denn wir muessen unzaehligen Froeschen ausweichen, die sich auf d** Strasse breit gemacht haben und offensichtlich die Gefahr nicht kennen, die von einem Auto fu** sie ausgeht. An d** Biologenstation wird uns** Schlangenfoto ganz int**essi**t als Boa Constrictor (Wu**geschlange) defini**t und uns ...

... dogs wasn't eating very well. She didn't have a penny (or colone) to give us for our work. Over the next 4 days, I spayed and neutered 40+ animals, many belonging to families like Claudia's. With the animals that Rosalinda did, the numbers were up above 60. We used injectable anesthetic (Telozil, Ketamine, Acepromazine and Atropine for those who care), and instruments sterilized in a pressure cooker and a cold sterile. My hands were ...

... Jeg skal nok spare j** for detalj**, men det fortsatte hele dagen og da vi nåede eft**middag havde det gentaget sig ca. 10 gange. Til sidst kunne jeg ikke bevæge mig uden at kaste op, og det blev jeg ved med at gøre fordi jeg prøvede at drikke vand hele dagen, det ** svært at holde sig fra at drikke når temp**aturen s***** sig op omkring de 40 grad**. Hen mod klokken 22 om aftenen blev jeg rigtig dårlig, og de andre pig** ringede eft** nogle læg** som ...

... nydt en cola fra minibaren til 40 kr stk. - uha dada. Mor snorkede dog en del, så undertegnede fik ikke sovet meget før efter midnat. Godt øreproppen er opfundet. Fredag Så nærmer den "rigtige" afgang sig. Vi spiste morgenmad på hotellet, en kæmpe buffet med alt hvad der hører sig til, og lidt ekstra. Mor og Søren spiste kun lidt, de bestemte sig nemlig for at vende tilbage til buffeten efter de havde fået vinket farvel. Alt forløb planmæssigt i ...

... Check out their website at: www.calalmission.blogspot.com It's nothing less than admirable what they are doing. It must be very mentally and physically challenging doing a trip like that. Had to help Cal with disinfecting his chest after he'd branded himself with a home made tattoo...!! Luckily I'm lugging my "Florence Nightingale kit (first aid kit for those who don't know who Florence was,) and I was able to play nurse for a while today.

... I walked up and down the beach, watching the newbie surfers in the small waves. Finally exhausted from the heat, I had a burger and liquids at Shake Joe's burger shop and napped in the hammock. Now this is living. My guide describes this as one of Costa Rica´s favorite beaches. It is easy to see why. It is still relaxed with a small town feel. There are no buildings over two stories high. The people were ...

... Our room has an outdoor shower where you feel the breeze & warm air from the outside. It is nice & warm in the 80's but not much humidity so my hair is doing ok!! The house is about 100 meters walk from a beautiful beach. Having fun so far. Just got word that they found my luggage & is supposed to get here tomorrow by noon. Much love, Shirin & Babak

... as we were huddling under a grove of coconut trees, discussing the advice given to us by our Houstonite friend back in Granada in case of thunderstorms overhead (i.e lie in a ditch and start praying), a lightning bolt, without a word of a lie, struck an rock offshore about 200 metres directly in front of us. While neither of us were all that pleased at prospect of being struck by lightning, or maybe because of it, we decided to hasten down the beach in the direction of Tamarindo ...

... to get drunk. We smile and nod in understanding. Drunks are the same everywhere. Alcoholism is not biased. We check out and head to the bus. At noon we are headed to San Jose. ~random thought on the bus~ The men behind me are speaking so loudly! I don't understand people who feel the need to speak so that everyone in 30 feet can hear their conversation. Really! YOU ARE NOT ...
