Santa Elena / Monteverde, Costa Rica

Tarantula in Santa Elena
Up in the cloud forest in the middle of Costa Rica, Monteverde is wetter than a waterpark and quite a bit of fun. Stayed in a great hostel called Pension Santa Elena, where everyone was a cool as a polar bears' toenails and liked to have a drink and chill out on the deck at night. Unfortunately Costa Rican prices induce stay at home drinking as the bars charge an extortinate 2 dollars a beer. Did the usual thing of flying through the canopy on a wire which was a lovely way of working off a mild hangover.
Also spent a couple of hours in the rain forest looking for wildlife, but other than a couple of Germans saw nada and got absolutely soaking wet.
