Turrialba

Ready for some fun on the Rio Pacuare	Waiting to get into our raft	Pumping it up	Calm to begin
Then the rapids begin - J and P at the back of the raft	Woohoo	Keep paddling	So much fun
We pass lovely waterfalls	Here we come again	Trying to stand up	Harder than it looks
River flows though virgin rainforest	Close to the gorge wall	Stunning scenery	You can just see us going down this rapid
We pass indigenous homes	Us again....can we make it?	Paddle, paddle, paddle	Woohoo
Brilliant fun	28km of scenic rafting	Beautiful narrow gorge	We jumped in and floated through the gorge
Pulling the raft out at the end - what a shame it's over	Off to get into dry clothes	Volcan Turrialba	Monumento Nacional Arqueologico Guayabo
Circular stone bases remain - they would have had conical roofs	Surrounded by forest - only a small part has been excavated	Steps up to one of two entrances in the central dwelling	Underground aqueducts to holding pool
A further aqueduct leads to a tank of potable water	Square stone bases indicate the guard houses	Monolith - jaguar on one side	Alligator on the other side
Tomb	Jesus Christ plant	Red underneath and white on top	Blue dragonfly
