On day 2 in Costa Rica, we drove an hour and a half north of Tamarindo to Rincon de la Vieja National Park. We hiked through the rain forest and had a blast on the canopy/zip line tour! It was a full days trip, but certainly well worth it. We didn't have time to hike to the summit of Rincon de la Vieja Volcano, but we did get to see another small active volcano which was pretty cool. I'm so glad we rented a car, because we could go where we wanted to when we wanted to and we got to see a ton of beautiful Costa Rica! It was overcast this day, so it was the perfect day not to be on the beach!
Hiking through the rain forest...
The tree trunks were unreal...I wonder why they grow like this??
Hot springs...
They were so hot that steam was everywhere...and it reeked of sulfur!
The small volcano....it was so hot that the dirt was bubbling...
Little pockets of steam were rising from the ground nearby...
A beautiful waterfall we came across...
The canopy tour was so much fun...there were tons of zip lines over and through the rain forest and we got to rock climb and repel through a canyon! Such a blast!
We headed back to Tamarindo mid afternoon....but first we stopped at McDonald's in Liberia for a little snack to hold us over until dinner (why does McDonald's taste so good in a foreign country?)! When we got back to our B&B, we cleaned up and went to eat at an Italian restaurant on the main strip in Tamarindo. Followed by dessert and cards, of course!
