The beach - finally!

I woke up Sunday morning to the most beautiful sunrise, and for the first time I was able to see the Nicoya Bay over the treetops. Apparently, this is not possible more than approximately once a month, so it was my lucky day. I also decided to explore the pond on the hotel grounds as part of my continuous search for the bright green Costa Rican frog – but had no such luck, although I did find a toad, but it is not really the same thing.

Interbus came and picked me up a couple of ...

Montezuma living

I am so glad that I decided to spend a whole of 6 days here in Montezuma, where life is very calm and relaxed, and here really isn't much else to do than lie on the beach, enjoy the delicous food and enjoy the atmosphere. Admittedly, I have rarely seen so many dreadlocks anywhere as here in Montezuma, and apparently - if you are into that sort of things - the jewelery sellers also sell other stuff than jewelery.

I have taken advantage of Sano Banano's sister hotel, The Ylang Ylang, 10...

Bus-Ferry-Bus

We had two early mornings in a row - brutal! First for bird watching and then to catch the bus to Puntarenas which departs from Santa Elena at 6 am! Not my idea of a good time but we had no choice. And once there we would have 4 nights on the beach to catch up on relaxing...and we took full advantage. It was a beautiful day and the ferry ride was very enjoyable. We saw tons of pelicans, some frigate birds, and even a brown booby. In Paquera the bus to Montezuma was waiting and a bumpy 2 hours...

Hostel of Horrors

... allowing a whole host of creepy crawlies to share our sleep. <br><br>As a result of these unfortunate circumstances we decided to visit the local haunt - Chicos - in the hope that a few Rums would make it all better. Alas, another hell hole, though perhaps it was just the wrong night. We arrived back at the hostel in the pouring rain and slept fitfully ...

San Isidro-- Driving the Moutain of Death

... figured it was a fuel issue. Now, a few days later, we relize the problem was not Wesley but bad fuel. White smoke, which we were blowing, is a sign of too much water in the fuel. Of course we had to get the bad Diesel right before going over the Moutain of Death! Luckily Wesley is running fine now.<br><br>That night we parked in the middle of a pineapple field own buy yours truly, Del Monte. I never thought we would be enjoying Del Monte for it's beautiful sunset's!

Volcanos, Butterflies, Waterfalls and Pooping Oxen

... calling the Serpentario their home. I'm glad we did that. Then we had lunch- a killer buffet and I ate too much. We then started the descent to the bottom of the 6 tiers of the waterfall. This thing is just huge, falling over 3000 feet down the mountain before culminating in a big river at the bottom. As we hiked down the well groomed path and arrived at the first cascade the force of the water hitting the pool at the bottom created a fine mist and a ...
