Day 3 - "Monte Verde"

3 Hour Bus trip to the Monte Verde Cloud Forest.  Very rare day WITHOUT CLOUDS!
Coffee Plantation - Toured the workings of the plantation

Coffee Flowers

Brahma Bull Ride (or should I say "sit")

Ferdinando the Bull and Eddie not "Juan Valdez"

Costa Rican children dancing native dances for us, drinking awesome coffee and eating organic food grown right there on the plantation.

Costumes were as great as the kids!

Organic Lunch - everything was produced from the ranch.















Butterfly exhibit - saw cocoons hatching and many species of butterflies. 

Butterfly was having lunch, too

Hanging Bridges Hike - high above the jungle floor and above the tree tops (Way up there!)

What a view above the jungle.

Stan and Julie spotted something.

Rain Forest not rainy on this day.......
We were really looking forward to the clouds and the misty jungle.
3 hour Bus trip back to the Riu.........WHEW a very long day!
