Costa Rica Water Activities
Jim and Greg stopping for lunch after an afternoon of Class 3 river rafting about an hour outside of La Fortuna. We had to avoid a great deal of rocks that were in the river, but that is part of rafting. The river is fed by a hydro-electric dam that releases water everyday in the morning. It was nice to know we were rafting on pure clean Costa Rican water. |
We ate an incredible lunch. Fresh pineapple, guava, watermelon and other assorted fruits. That definitely gave us the energy to finish the trip. |
Jim transforms himself into a giant and stops to take a drink from the 150 foot tall Catarata de La Fortuna. "It was refreshing drinking over 300 gallons of fresh river water every second," answered Giant Jim. | |
After changing back into regular size (he couldn't fit in the car) Jim looks out over a crocodile infested river in the early evening. It is definitely a harrowing experience knowing all those man eaters are out there lurking just below the surface. You can see a couple in the bottom left hand side of the foto. |
View from atop a bluff at Manuel Antonio. During the 30 minute hike we saw many animals including lizards, iguanas, sloths and white faced monkeys. |
