We went on a little boat trip from Montezuma to Jaco on Monday. It took 1 hour and we got drenched! It was only a small boat with about 20 people on but the waves kept splashing overboard! Half way through the journey we spotted some sea turtles swimming around-they were so big and their little heads were popping over the water. Then about 10 mins later there were about 20 dolphins swimming around the boat....they were gorgeous.

From Jaco we went staight to Quepos. Its not the prettiest of towns! Bit dirty and lots of locals who kind of stare down at you. But you have to stay here because staying near the national park is VERY overpriced. On Wednesday we took a 15 minute bus to the National Park called Manuel Antonio, one of the most popular places to visit here. Its basically a whole line of stunning beaches surrounded by greenery with loads of different species of animals living there. We managed to see a sloth (they sleep 23 hours a day so we were v lucky to spot one awake) and of course more monkeys. The monkeys were hilarious. They were everywhere on the beach and they kept going into peoples bags and stealing things as some stupid tourists left all their bags unattended with food in, which the monkeys stole in no time! But its really dangeous for them to eat human food as they can become very violent. We also saw racoons running around us, and these huge scary iguanas.
Pretty good few days. But amongst this week we had a bit of rain! And the whole towns water system kept going down so we couldnt have showers/flush toilets etc! Quite frustrating.
Tomorrow we fly at 6.30am to Panama. Our last stop in Central America.
Adios
