Guanacaste

During the end of August a few of us researchers took off to Guanacaste on the pacific coast to enjoy a little vacation. we had an awesome 3 days on the beach, staying right on the water at Playa del Coco. had amazing food: sushi, cajun. Went snorkeling at Playa Hermosa, where we saw string rays, parrot fish, wrases, puffer fish, dog fish, while swimming through clear, warm water. early afternoon a storm came up and we hit the water to wait it out. torrents of rain, lightning and thunder, it was fantastic. The next day we headed over to Bahia Ocotal for more snorkeling and lounging on the black sand beach. that night we went skinny dipping in the bay after dinner. we watched the moon rise, and as we swam around tiny dinos were bioluminesce-ing, making it look like there were dozens of miniature stars in the water. the next morning we spent out at playa del coco before having to bus back to san jose. there was a waterfall coming down off the cliffs near the beach that you could stand under. we snorkeled and bummed around all morning. that night we made it back to san jose for one last good dinner before returning to La Selva.
