As some of you know I took a little trip down to Costa Rica in December with my friend Jenny to attend a wedding for her family friends that live down there. The first part of the week we did some sightseeing on our own and the second half of the week it felt like we were graciously accepted as part of the family as they prepared for the festivities! It was a very fun and relaxing trip even while working through the goods & bads of the 8th week of pregnancy.
Here are are few photos of Costa Rica. If I was asked- I would go back in an instant!
Not pictured is our trip inside of the "Bat Jungle" where we learned alot about bats and saw them awake during the day. We learned that bats are pretty much extinct in the east coast and europe due to a white nose fungus that is transmitted from cave to cave. The disease is moving it's way across the country with 100% mortality rate in some caves. (See this link for more info)
Also not pictured is our trip to the local Monteverde cheese factory (my favorite cheese was the Monterico- sadly it isn't sold in the US :( )
I'll leave off with a video from the Hummingbird garden in the Monteverde cloud rainforest:
