Costa Rica Adventure

Finally,here are my pics of Costa Rica.


Layover flight in El Salvador and in our way to Juan Santamaria International Airport in San Jose, Costa Rica.

After 7 hours, we finally made it to the hotel. Our hotel was 3 hours away from San Jose. All we wanted to do was relax.

The next day we went to do our canopy, but part of the package was to go horseback riding. It was a great experience, not to mention seeing these 2 horses get their groove on in front of us. LOL

The rainforest fog. I was addicting to just snapping my camera every second and capture the beautiful views Costa Rica has to offer.

We went horseback riding before we did our Canopy Ziplining Adventure.

The repel! OMG, I was about to pee on myself doing that.

Finally, I made it safe! Felt like a strong woman. I can do it all! Costa Rica's motto is "PURA VIDA", which means "PURE LIFE"

We did 25 different canopies. It was such a great experience. I would def. do it again.

One of the guys that zipped us and unhooked us. He was so funny.

Our driver pulled a prank on me, where he had this police scare me so bad to the point that I thought I was really going to get arrested. He took the handcuffs out and totally made it seemed like I was going to stay in Costa Rica for the rest of my life. Thanks, I was PUNKED!

  4. Terrific images... thanks so much for sharing! My only Costa Rican experience was a layover in the San Juan airport, so it's a real treat to see these images. The image of the 2 horses is hilarious btw ;-) Your sisters are equally gorgeous and it looks like you guys had a lot of fun! I wouldn't mind giving the canopy ziplining a try either... probaby terrifying but exhilarating at the same time!
