First visit to Costa Rica and it won’t be my last. I have always wanted to visit their rain forests and walk their beaches. Friends who owned a bungalow there ofter me and my friend Greg Caudill (since high school) their place to stay in Quepos.

Don’t have to twist my arm and, as soon as graduation was complete at UofL, we were of to San Jose then Quepos. Great experience from waking every morning with a family of monkeys playing outside of my screened window (actually an entire wall) to visiting the beach and rain forest at Manuel Antonio, having great meals with fresh seafood to swimming in a river so clean that you can drink from it at Rainmaker (another forest), seeing all types of wild animals to fabulous sunsets. My photos don’t really do the experience justice.
