Adventures in Costa Rica

in #partiko5 years ago (edited)

I decided to come a couple days before work started in Costa Rica to hang out with @raserrano. He was so gracious to take me to visit an animal rehabilitation center where you can see beautiful creatures in a natural gorgeous habitat. Unfortunately, the creatures brought back to health are not able to return to the wild as a result of an injury, trauma, or lack of survival skills. Here are some pics of some of these beautiful creatures:

After spending a delightful time at the rehab center, we made our way up some windy mountain roads to a volcano named Poas and stopped nearby for lunch. The climate was very different at that altitude, slightly cooler and sometimes engulfed in an entire cloud! This time of year is for strawberries and there were tons of roadside vendors selling them. We took a detour to a waterfall which was just beautiful! Here's me taking a selfie shot with the water fall in the background:

We drove back to the San Jose valley and the finished our journey watching the sun set and talking about our big plans for Bitcoin and Steemit!

This is the amazingly awesome man who was able to make this all happen....@raserrano!

Animals look happy and well even if not being able to be returned to the wild @jrb450

Sorry to hear the release back into the wild is not possible, congratulations found your post on Daily @qurator No. 515

@jrb450. My wife and I just relocated to Costa Rica at the beginning of the year. We’re currently in Atenas, ain’t this country gorgeous??

That is awesome you were able to relocate here! I see on maps that you are only 20mins away from where I work in Coyol. Absolutely love coming here!

Awesome! Gotta love Pura Vida. We just visited La Fortuna, which is a gorgeous drive from the mountains of Atenas, and the Arenal Volcano is just striking. Lots to see and do here. :)
