Robin and Chip (R&C) had a lovely adventure in Costa Rica in late May. The trip started off rafting the very scenic Pacuari River, ranked amongst the top five in the world (no photos since the camera is not waterproof). That evening we drove to my place in Ciudad Quesada and R&C crashed in our guest quarters. R&C arose the next morning to a sumptious breakfast of huevos rancheros and a mouth-watering lasagna for lunch by Deb. In between they enjoyed complementary massages with hot volcanic rocks by my expert massage therapist Ligia. R&C proceeded to Arenal Observatory Lodge for the next three days with breath taking views of the volcano. The second day R&C and I made a trip up to Volcano Tenorio National Park...thermal vents, hot springs along the aqua blue Rio Celeste, delicious swimming, vines for swinging Tarzan style and surreal Celeste Waterfall. The next day R&C got a rush zipping 600feet over the rainforest canopy at more than 40mph. In the afternoon they soothed their bones at Tabacon Hot Springs. The final three days in Manuel Antonio were highlighted with beaches, monkeys, iguanas and the luxuries of La Mansion Inn. R&C wrapped up their final evening in Costa Rica uniting with Tom and Julie in Finca Rosa Blanca (Heredia).
