manuel antonio

hola.

so, last weekend 7 of us headed to manuel antonio. it is a town on the pacific coast of costa rica. it took us about 3 1/2 hours on a bus (which only cost $5...awesome). it was a good first trip. thanks to our host dad, joe, for the recommendation.

here are a few pictures:

this is the beach that was about 100 yards from our hotel. bueno.

then we went to the national park...which was very pretty. lots of wildlife...birds, iguanas, monkeys, raccoons, etc. however, my very favorite was this:


a sloth! i have never seen a sloth in it's natural habitat. by far worth the $10 entrance fee.

a view from the top of a hike:


i'm sorry to say i didn't take more pictures. we swam at a beautiful beach in the park but i failed to take any pictures of that. sorry.

anyway...that's all i have for now.

everything is good so far.

I still cant believe the beauty of Manuel Antonio, I now live in costa rica and it still amazes me the place.

were you able to see some monkeys at the national park, the only problem is that they threw feces at a guy the last time I was there.

Nice post thank you
