La Fortuna
Vanmorgen met de bus naar La Fortuna. Na een flinke wandeling door een nog slaapdronken San José vonden we de bushalte. Aangezien we ruim op tijd vertrokken waren, hadden we nog tijd voor een vers kopje koffie met een koffiekoek met chili en aardappel (zeer lekker) en met gedroogd fruit (niet te vreten). De rit zou 4u duren maar na ongeveer 45min viel de bus in panne. Na ...
Rustic Route to the Waterfall

Ein Shuttlebus fährt uns zurück zum Parkeingang und wenige Minuten später sitzen wir schon wieder in unseren Sätteln, noch ganz vertieft, in das zuvor ...
Sliding through cables and waterfalls
... uma brisa bem agradável, algumas descargas de adrenalina e, mais importante que tudo, o acesso à maldita cascata de 10$ que se ficou pela intenção no dia anterior.A cascata, factor vencedor que me levou, em parte, a escolher o tour#1, o que também tem o acesso à estufa de borboletas. Mas tem a cascata. A ver de que material é feita. A ver se é mais do que um tropeção de água do alto de um andar bem algo. A ver quantos quilates tem. E, é claro que, ...
