One nice thing about the high country is the breeze and cooler air. We slept last night with a blanket. Today, we are driving to Santa Elena and booking our tickets for Selvatura (zip-lining and butterfly park). The drive is only a few kms but at 10km/hr it takes a while. The road is a challenge for even the best vehicle and drivers. I am getting used to driving in the mountains on roads with boulders and pot holes that you need a ferry to cross.
- At daybreak you can see the top of the volcano
- Great roots
- The drive around Lake Arenal is awesome
- Melissa loves the red soil
- Lots of crafts in this area – most are carved from local woods.
- The terrain is so different it is hard to believe it is CR
