... next door solely because they were showing old Michael Jackson concert coverage. We must have stood out there for at least 10 minutes before we decided to go in and watch like civilized people. We ordered cokes and sat there for almost an hour watching old music videos by Aerosmith, Guns n´Roses and Phil Collins (of all artists)! It was highly entertaining(and yes, we sang along) and we weren´t bothered once by any of the locals, despite the fact that we were ...

... room really was that bad. The bunk beds on one side were normal size with pancake thin matteresses. The bunks on the other side were super skinny...like 1/3 the size of a twin sized bed. AND, the room was so small that you had to suck in and shimmy between the bed and the wall to get to the nasty bathroom which I won't ...

... lengthy drive from Jaco but the Pacific coastline is gorgeous and we stopped once and while to buy fresh mangos.<br><br>The next day we got up early to go on a 2-1/2 hour hike which looped us around the basin of a fairly active Volcano. The hike was extremely unique, taking us pass mud ponds that were naturally boiling at temperatures of 75 Celsius to 106. Walking down the path we were alerted that we were approaching the ponds by the ...

... the big ol' forest.<br><br>Let's see, what else has happend...? I was able to see a tayra 2 days ago. Tayras are one of my favorite animals of the central amercan forests...they are a type of weasel, but really seem to have a uniqueness about them that i have not really seen that often in the forest. It is tough to describe, but tayras move in a very interesting, almost serpentine, way...and spend a good deal of time ...

... the house, hoping, not to see them again, hearing more `Sexy sexy baby`on the way home and being completely worn out by this MACHO CULTURE. Men dont respect woman in any way and the word NO doenst exist in their limited small world, that only works when they see a female.<br>So please, whats wrong here? Next time we are going here, we must definately go with our male friends, otherwise we are the TOP TARGET and go through the same story again!<br>Only be warned! .)<br>

Set of towards the border and as the back is OK we are continuing to cross. We arrived at the Nicaraguan side at 8.15 in the morning; first stop is to pay a town tax of $1 each. A bit of a cheek since it is the only crossing point so you have to go through the town. We then drove into the border area and decide to use a tramitadore. He was helpful, spoke good English and took us straight to the relevant desks. We were then told to drive further to get to the Costa ...

... across the patio. We were sitting next to an American couple who, naturally, asked what happened and I replied "that lizard just ******* on our table!" At that point, I also decided it was a good idea to switch tables and we moved to one safely under the awning. Those brave souls who decided to remain seated under the trees kept compulsively looking above them to keep tabs on the lizard while shielding their plates. Catharine also made a good ...

... Termae) but even this was quite garish and had an in-pool bar and fake Mayan pyramid. It was a popular hangout for Japanese businessmen travelling sans wives. We enjoyed relaxing there for a few hours though. The trip the next day to Monteverde (where we are now) involved a boat ride over a misty manmade lake and then a van ride over rough roads. It was nice to meet some other interesting travellers in the van though. That´s all for now Nat and Al

... whitewater rafting destinations. We took a 6-person raft down the Rio Pacuare for 19 miles. The river was pretty amazing. There were so many waterfalls that fed the river, from ones that dropped quickly down cliffs to ones that trickled in from a bed of rocks. It was Class III and IV rapids, but nothing too serious for rafting. I´m considering going down it again in a kayak. I´ll send another update in a few days. Right now I have to catch a bus.

... on the beaches in Northern Honduras. We left beach at 5 and headed on turtle tour at half 7. We were lucky and unlucky that it was the last night of the turtle tours as the season was coming to an end. Lucky if we saw a turtle, unlucky if we didn`t. Usually, if you don`t see a turtle, you get to come the next night for free. But because there was no next night, they were refunding the mulah. But Collins and I would be well on the bus by the ...
