Two more items crossed off the bucket list

Today we hiked in the Tirimbina reserve (twice, actually); once to a chocolate growing & processing demonstration and once just to see what we could find. My two biggest moments were seeing a troop of white-faced Cappucine monkeys and then seeing a howler monkey. It was just indescribably awesome, something that I will remember forever.

I also crossed a hanging bridge that was 800 meters, if I remember correctly. It crossed the rainforest and two rivers. Not scary at all! I filmed a few minutes to share with you all when I get back so you can see how shaky it was up there.

Tonight, we capture and measure bats.
And later this week, we head to the volcano. This is the place I'll be staying: www.arenalparaiso.com

Looks pretty sweet!

Enjoy the photo of an iguana we saw today. You may have to supersize it. A little blurry, but all I had was my phone at that moment.
