Today was a sightseeing day. We drove north to see the rain forest. 3 members of our group rode the zip line through the rain forest while the rest of us rode the arial tram. The tram ride was about an hour, the first half along the forest floor and the second half up high through the canopy. After the ride, we had a guided walk through the forest so that we could see the plants and animals up close and personal. After lunch in their outdoor cafe, serenaded by cicadas, we had a guided tour of the butterfly and frog house.
After our tours, we drove to Alajuelo, where we are staying in a very quaint hotel. The hotel is only minutes from the airport, which will be handy for our very early flight Sunday morning. After walking around town and seeing a market that looked like it should be on the Amazing Race, we had a final dinner out and ice cream for dessert. Then it's to bed early because our alarm will be going off at 3 am.
