For our final day in this part of the world the sun came out – finally! Whether to reward us for our perspicacity, or to taunt us for having to leave the next day, it was still sunshine, and blessed warmth. We departed at 6 AM from our mountainside retreat in Monteverde, slowly descending the…

Across the Continental Divide, following multiple switchbacks, we slowly made our way to the Monteverde area, arriving at our hotel built into the side of a mountain in mid-afternoon….
Like most of our days so far, Wednesday morning arrived with a steady drizzle and a grey sky. After driving out of Arenal for about 45 minutes, however, the sky began to brighten, and by the tine we reached our destination in the wetlands of Cano Negro, the sky was sunny and the temperature was…

The trip took a decidedly upward tick today, with much better temperatures (mid 60’s). Still more rain than we would like, but no downpours today.
