Monteverde

We left early and headed a short distance by bus to a boat to head across the lake. There used to be towns here but they were destroyed by the volcano. Our boat broke down half way across the lake, so our journey took a bit longer than we thought. We drove another two hours to Monteverde. We checked in to the hotel, which was pretty basic, but we scored a good room! We all went to see a big fig tree which had wrapped itself around another tree which had died. This created a hollow climbing frame that you could crawl up to the top. It was an awesome climbing tree that felt like the magic faraway tree!
We had a chilled arvo and we got amazing fish tacos, awesome coffee and checked out the local souvenir shops. I wasn't feeling super good with my ear, so rested. We had a dinner/BBQ at a local place and after had salsa dancing lessons. We all then went to the disco and danced till quite late.Read more
