La Fortuna

Highlights:
- A nice, easy travel morning which involved a mini van, a boat across the lake with views of Arenal volcano, and another mini van
- Swimming in the river and watching the locals do flips and tricks from the rope swing
- Chilling in the hot springs with candles and drinks - a perfect way to spend the evening (although a raccoon stole someone in our group's bananas at the end - spooky to see eyes appear in the dark!)
- Serena enjoyed a rest/travel admin day while Josh went to a waterfall with friends

Lowlights:
- Serena still has hurt ribs from surfing (which were made worse by ziplining, oops!)

Food and drink:
- Delicious soda meal at Soda Viquez - both had casados which are the typical meal of meat or fish with rice, beans, plantain and a couple more random sides
- Made a yummy stir fry in the best hostel kitchen so far
- Tried guanabana and cas shakes which were both really niceRead more
