On our second day in Costa Rica we went on a canopy tour
outside the town of Quepos. The shuttle picked us up from the hotel and
transported us to the park. The ride to the zip lining course was beautiful. We
went through palm orchards, crossed several rivers on make-shift bridges and saw
gorgeous mountainscapes. The guides on the zip lining tour were hilarious and
spoke English pretty well. There were 10 zip lines and 2 repels. On one of the
repels I got to going so fast that the rope burned a hole through my pants!
We got back to the resort around noon and had lunch by the
pool. We've been sipping on ‘banana bungees’ since we arrived at the resort and they are
pretty darn tasty!
I also got to break in the spa on our second day! I had a facial and a massage from a tiny
little lady. At first I thought the massage was going to be a bust; but she
really got down on the knots in my back! I’ve even talked Drew into going back
with on Monday after fishing!
For dinner on our second night we went to a local restaurant
called Cafe Agua Azul. It was an open-air restaurant that served a lot of seafood
specialties. Drew and Kim got some raw tuna looking stuff and Justin got a fish
sandwich. I got pineapple chicken skewers that had grilled banana wrapped in
bacon and it was phenomenal!
