Back to San Jose
Today, we had to reverse our trip of two days before back to San Jose. But we had an additional complication - the road back to San Jose was closed due to a mud slide. Our opportunity was to see the seventh province of Costa Rica, so we made it to all seven. Of course, it took a couple hours longer to get back, especially since traffic was extra heavy on what was mostly a two lane road.

So how do we summarize this trip? First, we had the unusual situation that everyone in the group got along, we would not hesitate to travel with any of them again. Second, our guide, Jorge, was great - funny, took the time to tell us many more things than we will ever be able to remember, and helpful when we needed help. Third, the trip probably is best summarized as one filled with activities (white water rafting, zip lining, horseback riding, kayaking) and nature (mostly birds, lizards, frogs, and small mammals like monkeys). It doesn't have the historical sites of the Aztecs or Incas, wasn't a lot of cultural activities, but it was definitely an interesting country to visit.
