Casa Caletas Boutique Hotel Puntarenas

... back in Phuket, Thailand with my mama and sister because this beach was SOOO BEAUTIFUL! It was white sand beach, with beautiful rocks and scenery everywhere you turned. We first got out and went snorkeling! And in all the times I've gone snorking (Thailand, Hawaii, and Costa Rica before) I have NEVER seen so many breathtakingly beautiful fish!!! It was so incredible! We were able to swim around this huge rock over and over and over again. It was so neat I didn’t want ...

June 28<br><br>I woke around 8 by one of the workers to remind me that I wanted to attend church with a friend of the families. So I woke up and got dressed. Everyone had something nice to say about what I was wearing which was very flattering and put a smile on my face because i felt like a sweaty mess. i cant stop sweating. haha, that is the reason why i walk around in a swimsuit top and skirt 24/7 because it extremly hot here. I ate the same breakfast as the day ...

... og efter en overnatning i puente arenas, er vi nu i montezuma. her nyder vi den afslappende atmosfaerre med store strande og laekkert vejr. i dag har vi nydt et vandfald, hvor vi laa og plaskede rundt i 2 timers tid, og ellers koert rundt med vores canadiske venner, hvor den ene har lejet en bil. i morgen forlader vi stillehavskysten, forhaabentlig i bil med canadierne og koerer mod en national park, som ligger ud mod caribien. god paaske her fra. nicos y marcos.

... ikke var en strand/bølger for nybegyndere. Så vi brugte resten af dagen på at tage sol og slappe af. Vi var dog lidt utilfredse da vi havde betalt mange penge for surf lektionen så instruktørerne lovede os at vi kunne få lektionen i Tamarindo i stedet på et andet tidspunkt :) Om aftenen hyggede vi med pizza, og de andre gik ud for at lede efter en bar.. Jeg gik tidligt i seng, var helt udmattet efter min kamp med bølgerne ;) og alt den sol vi havde fået. - Folk p ...

... accompanied by numerous white tips and so many brightly coloured reef species as well as even a few Pacific lobsters. 28/11/08 - Another amazing day, actually amazing doesn't really cover it! The first dive was a welcome return to Dirty Rock the outside edge of it was where we dropped in and met up at about 15 meters to get comfortable on our respective boulders and find our grab holds. There were just so many thousands of fish, the schooling Jacks were so immense that ...

We stayed two nights in Montezuma but unfortunately it was raining all the time and quite heavily. We went for a walk the morning we were there, towards the national park, without ever entering it because it cost 10bucks to get in and the road there is nice enough. The village is really cute but way too expensive. It is the most touristy region of Costa Rica apparently. The road to get there is very very bumpy, so bad that the buses will stop running as ...

... a frilly design and the toilet seat cover was lolly green with white lace. So frou-frou! Monteverde is nestled in hills in the cloud forest and most of the activities here involve tours of one sort or another involving trees and animals. On our first afternoon we had an excellent, quick and cheap lunch at Cafe Maravilla (highly recommended). Best value in Costa Rican cafes are the casados - a kind of daily chef´s special which will usually include rice ...

... forest, again at varying levels. Some of them were ovwer 500m long, and you really picked up speed. The views were incredible. There was also a trazan swing so they attached your bungy to a wire and let you freefall basically. It was terrifying but great fun. The guys that took us around were all really nice and made it great fun. It was quite an experience flying through the trees. We are really glad we went through the ...

... and I had all the girls, that I have met since I have been here, over to stay at my apartment and we all went out on Sat. night. Such craziness, literally 1000´s of people in the streets all hammered. There was a really sweet Reggae show and it was wicked fun. Well then Sunday hit pretty hard when I realized that the first day of school was today. The girls didn´t go back to Miramar until 8 ...

... until the afternoon, so I was on board ship in the morning, clearing down the camera's memory, loading new batteries etc. Which was handy as I was in a good spot to watch the crew lifeboat drill... It was reassuring to see that these guys know exactly what they're doing. So, to the skywalk. Where to start...? The group I went with was, unfortunately, somewhat less than ideal. To say that I was the youngest ...
