Costa Rica: December 27, 2009

Awesome rainstorm last night.  Our first night in the jungle was fantastic.  After coffee and a quick breakfast, we went on a 3 hour nature hike to a waterfall.  Nice group and an another excellent guide.  The guides here are all very well educated locals, and it's very clear they love their backyard.

(the lodge provides the boots!)

After the hike, we had some idle time...which was weird.  I kept reminding myself to enjoy every second of not having something to do.
