At the put-in of our 2-day trip down the Pacuare River, one of the top 5 rivers in the world. The rapids are awesome - in close succession, whereas the rapids on Utah rivers are separated by flatwater stretches. It's a FUN run!!
Start 'em out young...

Mesh huts built on the side of the hill in the middle of the rainforest. Not bad digs for the night spent on the Pacuare River.
Sleep is goooood. With mesh "walls", the jungle is pretty much in your room. The night sounds were pretty incredible, as was the sound of the river running just below me. 
Waterfall we stopped and swam at during day 2 on the Pacuare River.

Ok - not the most flattering picture of me... but the freakin bird was trying to beak my eye out.

View of Arenal Volcano from our hotel room. The clouds did clear one night and we could see lava flowing down the volcano... cool.

A localized storm hits a little town as we cross Lake Arenal.

Video of the Tarzan swing - Extremos Zipline
Zipline stuff... we did two ziplines in Monteverde. The first was lame so we found a better one - Extremos - that was exceptionally cool!
Leaving Monteverde, Costa Rica - heading to the coast.

Does anybody know where I can get some drift wood?
Got to see Frodo's condo in Costa Rica...
Our hotel in Montezuma
View from the hotel room in Montezuma, Costa Rica. No roads leading to the hotel - they come pick you up in the town and drive over the rocks on the beach to get to the hotel.

Oh my gosh! Your cousin Jessica here... I totally stayed at that same hotel next to Arenal Volcano in '99 on our way to Cana Negro. (There's a tilde' there over the 'n' in Cana....) The only time we saw any lava was in the middle of the night just barely trickling down the side. It was very cool though. Makes me want to go back. Looks like you guys had a fun time. We stayed inland and in San Jose. I sure wish we could have gone to the beach. It looks beautiful. See ya!
