Costa Rica Travel Blogs

Background: Costa Rica is a Central American success story: since the late 19th century, only two brief periods of violence have marred its democratic development. Although still a largely agricultural country, it has expanded its economy to include strong technology and tourism sectors. The standard of living is relatively high. Land ownership is widespread.

We woke to roosters, howling white face monkeys...and, the sweet sound of construction next door...all at the bewitching hour of 6am. We got up early as we had to eat and catch the tico bus to Manual Antonio Natural Park...as we wanted to get there early and hike the trails to experience the park at its liviest. We "hired" a guide for a private tour...just the 4 of us...nick named "skinny" or "flacko"....I(jill typing now) kept making a folding motion with my hands as if i were going to fold flako up and stick him in my pocket to take him [View Full Entry]

Hopefully the rest of the week is better. More importantly, however, was my trip to the beach this weekend! (Just kidding Mom and Dad). This weekend I went to Manuel Antonio National Park, which is on the central Pacific coast. Iīve never seen the ocean look blue - it was stunning!
