Costa Rica


This was my 3rd time to costa rica and by far the best!! We stayed in Jaco the first three days in a really nice marriot resort. While we were there we drove to Manuel Antonio to visit the national park where we saw monkeys, sloths, raccoons, and snorkeled a bit. Then we drove to Dominical which is pretty deep into the jungle (the prettiest jungle i've seen in costa) and stayed in kind of a ghetto bungalo that was right on the beach and had the most happening disco techa party around. We went on the most awesome zipline tour (including tarzan swing)...then we took a boat ride out to cano island for some crazy snorkeling (swam with reef sharks, turtles, and the most fish i have ever seen!) It was seriously so fun (not really relaxing and kind of intense) but really fun.

Wow, your pics are awesome! That little monkey is so cute and those ziplines/swings look intense! Glad you guys had so much fun. =)

the best part of the trip was the thick jungle of Dominical. I surfed alone on the beach, there were not too many tourist and we had extreme monsoons every night. our bungalow was on a private beach with our own private restaurant and pool. the rooms were very simple they had a bed and a luke warm shower unless you asked them to turn on the hot water. the best part was there was no television for 4 nights. I wanna go back to paradise.
