The hotel was gorgeous!
The first day we were able to go visit a some rain forest gardens. On the way we had to cross this scary bridge. I was expecting an Indiana Jones moment- any time would the bridge would break on one end over the river (with Crocodiles might I add), and we would have to try to pull our selves up. Luckily that didn't happen and we were able to enjoy the gardens.
The next day we drove a very long (and sickening) way to Volcan Poaz, a live Volcano. This was pretty cool to see, there was actually green stuff spraying from it.
Tyler got to play under a 'poor mans umbrella', this huge leave that feels like elephant skin.
After we drove to a beautiful waterfall garden. However since I was working, we didn't have much time. It was like, oh theres a waterfall, picture, next, and we continued like that. It was supposed to be an hour tour or so. We finished in about 20 minutes. It was worth it though.
Can you see us...were tiny little dots at the upper left:
Then we visited another rainforest garden and canopy/zip line tour. This was way fun.
Here's a video of an awesome plant we found, it's called sleeping plant...or something like that.We had about a day and a half of free time while we were down there and we definitely took advantage. First we visited a black sand beach, Hermosa Beach. It was amazing. The sand comes from lava rocks.
Tyler took some surf lessons on Jaco beach. He did awesome!

Us having breakfast in Jaco, there were some interesting old men here.
Next we drove down to Manuel Antonio, a gorgeous beach/nature preserve. We seen sloths and monkeys all over on this beach.
As I was laying on the beach, I was actually almost attacked by a Raccoon. He wanted candy. Tyler had a blast skim boarding here. This was the most beautiful beach I have ever ever seen. It was so much fun.

Last but not least, our rental car. Tyler wants one now. Its a Jimmy.
