We started our morning off with a nature walk...and we all know how much I love nature...we saw a lot of trees and occasionally a moving leaf which apparently meant there were some birds around! The cloud forest is beautiful but unfortunately the animals took this morning off, our guide was very informative though so we learned a lot about the trees and other plants. (in today's picture Amanda and I are very excited about all the trees!) as a grand finale we did ...

Another travel day today, we left La Fortuna and headed to Monteverde. We started our journey with a 45 min boat ride across Lake Arenal there was an incredible view of the volcano from there. The next part of our journey was a very bumpy bus ride up the side of a mountain to Monteverde. Most of yesterday was spent exploring the town, with lunch in a treehouse! We also found a very unique store....which meant more shopping! Monteverde is famous for its cheese...
