Don't Let the Rain Come Down...

As promised, here is my blurb on my short trip to Costa Rica.

With plans to get away and rest, it was the perfect destination. Unfortunately, the weather was not as cooperative. But let's face it, we were heading to the rainforest - rain was inevitable.

That didn't stop us from having a good time. Two hikes through the rainforest and a day at the infinity pool was just what I required.

The first hike took us along a broken trail with sightings of many creatures, vegetation and beaches. Monkey's swung through the trees while small Halloween Crabs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween_crab) scurried into small holes within the ground. The surroundings were picturesque and definitely memorable.

The second hike took us deeper into the rainforest along a small river. After crossing the river twice in water up to my knees, the reward of a beautiful waterfall awaited my eyes. Knowing that several people turn at the sight of the first river crossing only made me appreciate the hidden waterfall more.

It was a memorable trip, a much needed rest, and a great destination for one's camera. Enjoy the pictures!
