OSA Peninsula

On Sunday we travled to the Osa Peninsula which took about 10 hours to go a few hundred miles. We left arounf 6 am and the roads were terrible. Unfortanelty a road was blocked due to the tropical storm and we were forced to turn around. The bus ended up getting stuck as it was backing up and we had to push it. The roads that we took as a back up were on some kind of plantation and didn't look like it was big enough for a huge touist bus. After a really long bus ride we reached a boat dock on the Sierpe River. On the way there I noticed the tree cover was amazing and it looked like a scene from Jurasic Park. We reached the eco-camp around 4 o'clock and we played cards for the rest of the evening. Our group was actullay the first to stay at this resort.

On Monday we went to the Corcovada National Park by boat. We took a nature hike where we saw monkeys, Costa Rica's national bird the McCaw, and a lot of insects and lizards. We also took a second nature walk to a waterfall where we able to jump off from the top.



Tuesday was dedicated to snorkle off the coast of an island called Isla Del Cano which was a few miles from the Osa. We were able to a few schools of fish anlong with the coral reef. It was defineltly like nothing I have never done before.

The hospitality of the resort was excellent. We had a different dish of food for every meal so we were never burnt out on one thing. We had either steak, fish, or chicken in the evenings with a bowl of soup. And we always had some kind of tropical drink.

Wedensday we headed back to San Jose. Also, on Wednesday I figured out that I was accepted to the business school, so I was pretty pumped.
