La Cusinga

We watched the first half of the Super Bowl at our favourite restaurant & bar, El Gran Escape, with the usual fishermen. At half time, after watching Tom Petty, we headed back to Las Cascadas to take in the second half with Lonnie & Maureen, travelers from Streetsville, Ont. On Tuesday this week we left our "home away from home" and went to the La Cusinga Rainforest Lodge at Uvita, about 65 kms south of Quepos. We left at 9 am and arrived at 11:40 am - 2 hours & 40 mins to go 65 kms. The road...

... El Indio is the best.

Lots of hanging around for the "ferry" - a lancha with cover & massive 200hp outboard which was stretched to capacity on the trip to Drake Bay. The book fails to mention this service - it's $15 and leaves about 11am though best to go in at least an hour or two before to reserve your slot.

Was a fun & beautiful hour's trip and we even stopped to check out a croc sunbathing on the way. Prepare to get wet as beach landing!

... through the bamboo forest, but turned back just before the right fork that would have got me to other swimming holes.

Finally back on route, found the falls but the river was so swollen after recent rains I was dubious about going into the main flow & getting washed down to the lower pool from which there was no way out except down. Went in at the smaller side falls which were more sedate.

The Ballena National Park was a long hot walk on poor ...

San Isidro-- Driving the Moutain of Death

After dropping Bev off at the airport we headed straight out of town. Of course this took us a good hour due to traffic and the inability to get proper directions! The map I we had purchased at a hotel the day when we came into the country was supposedly up-to-date, but so far I had counted around 10 mistakes. The San Jose portion was no different. By the time we got out of the city it was around 3 PM so we only had a few hours of daylight left and we still had to go ...

Cascada Verde

Hey Update. I'm currently in Uvita Costa Rica at a place called Cascada Verde. This place is pretty awesome in the jungle with a crazy view looking out to the ocean. The people are all so different, each one is so unique. There is this lady from Germany GashaNe who quit her Lawyer job and came here to volunteer and do yoga... she's like 50 and has this funny broken English. I find my self laughing not only at her but with her constantly ...

... 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 ...

... imaginable, basically a 4x4 flatbed truck-van. We're talking an all out beast of a machine. I could cruise around in something like this for the rest of my life and the fun would never wear off. We've been tearing up some pretty steep roads lately too and something tells me they will soon find their way to the states if they haven't already. I've seen the baby version of one before in the Daihatsu Hijet but nothing remotely comparable to this. So Ryder usually wakes up before I do and ...
