costa rica, monte verde

Here are some pictures from the Monte Verde area, which we leave tomorrow morning. In between dumping thunderstorms, we have managed to have a lot of fun, today making it out to the frog pond and back to the reserve. One bummer is the huge mall that is going up between Monte Verde and Santa Elena--hard to believe that people think that is a good idea.

Bestma, Aunt Kathy and Judy on the Monte Verde Reserve trail.

The family at the Sapo Dorado reserve which Joel and Dave recommended. Mauricio, the guide, was great, and much better than the one we had at the coast. Saw the Emerald Toucanet (below) there:
