Today is our last full day in San Jose. This week we ventured again to the Pacific Coast, Playa Hermosa with it´s legendary consistent waves is was a big draw for Ricardo. We managed to get in a good session in the morning - by ¨we¨ I actually mean Ricardo because I now have another story about how I got pounded by the huge waves. I did enjoy watching some great surfing while munching on the advil!
On our way home we stopped by to see the crocodiles - from a safe distance - they are huge, but slow on land! Then we got a fly by from a toucan while driving it was fantastic. We ended the day at Zoo Ave in San Jose which is a Zoo mainly focused on conservation, breeding and release programs. They have repopulated some areas where deforestation and egg snatching have extinguished the population of many beautiful breeds of birds native to Costa Rica.
We have also got the opportunity to see the crater of the volcan Poas which is hard to glimpse due to the cloud cover. All in all I think we´ve been extremely lucky in the country with the fantastic people we know and the opportunities we have had.
