... up we were in feet, but it was far. The maximum capacity on the bridge is 10 people an luckily there were only 4 of us on it at one time. We decided that the middle of the bridge was a perfect spot for lunch, despite the rain. We plopped down and pulled out our gourmet pb&j's and bon apetite! It was by far one of the coolest lunch spots in my book. We hit the end of the trail just in time to see the bus pulling away but lucky for us, the nice park employees flagged down the driver ...

... 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.

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!

... last but not least, for ziplining. We arrived around lunch time and hit the supermarket, where we stocked up on all the essentials for the weekend: peanut butter, jelly, bread, pasta, and marinera sauce.

None of the lads bothered to come as I couldn't guarantee ...

Just a quick blog to keep you up to date<br>Had to change plans as there was no space at Sirena Ranger Station. Margarita was able to organise alternative route into Corcovado<br>Got Marvi bus to Sierpe. Stayed in good cabinas and had excellent meal in their restaurant<br>

... Londres) But, ultimately, I would rather live closer even. Hey, ask for what you want, right? I want to live right on the beach. But, I do like this place, I just don't want to settle here, for many reasons. But, for now, it is perfect, and just what I needed. They offer breakfast and dinner for all guests...and they have a great chef, named Paul...who, by the way, used to live in Phoenix (east valley even). They are building a watsu ...
