Monteverde - 24 January - Pura vida!

Sunset from our balcony

Coffee farm tour and canopy zip-line tours, today; pictures and video follow the break. (Click on Read more link, below.)

Coffee on the bush; red is ripe, others are not

Costa Rican traditional ox-cart

Crushing cane the old-fashioned way

Getting psyched for zip-lining: Carol, Don & George

In this video, our guide chats with Don and Robert, then takes off with the video cam, across a gorge; at the mid-point (24-30 sec.), you can see one of the suspension bridges which we walked on the bridges hike, the day before:

Another video, with Don and Robert landing at the next platform:

George pulls a short landing. "Hey, that's my wife!"

But Carol comes in clean:
