    Turtle Release at Calamocha

    February 6, 2021 in Costa Rica ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

    After 3 days in Potrero und 4 days in Sámara we went our way Down do Calamocha near Santa Teresa. I did not follow the recommendation of Google maps and decided to went all along the coast which ended in a 90 km dirty road with 3 rivers which we had to cross with our car. So even the drive was an experience. Once arrived we felt like home in Calamocha were we booked a jungle lodge and we getted surprised directly since Veronique the owner came and asked if we want to come with her releasing baby turtles at the beach. For sure we said yes and it was absolutely an amazing experience. Our son was responsible for 6 baby turtles to put them out of the Box and help them all the way to the sea. Wow!

    The next Morning at 5am we had a concert of very Lod monkeys which are sitting directly in front of our lodge. Sounds we have never heard before and in the beginning we even thought it is a much bigger animal until we saw them. We love to stay here for one week. Tomorrow we rented Atv's. Pretty sure it will be the next Freylight.😊
