We showed up at this place after an hour's drive on the Pan-American Highway and some rough rough roads (not a big surprise - most roads here are pretty rough!!!) not knowing what we were getting into and it turned out pretty well. We took a "Costa Rican Hayrack Ride" - a tractor pulling a big trailor - up even rougher roads -- just ask Ella. She took a pretty good spill off of the bench and hit her head on the side of the trailor when we hit a big bump. So the rough roads and the tractor took us up into a termperate forest - the forest in between the dry plains and the rain forest - and a nice little hike up to a swinging bridge and some beautiful water falls and a fun pool the Meggie and Dave swam in.
The first picture is of Dave and a 200 year old ficus tree.
Everyone did a great job! Ella was a trooper - I can only think that our hikes this summer got her ready for this! And Mom crossed this 'fun' bridge even though she is so afraid of heights and hates these things!!!
It was a good day!
