Day 5 Arreal Volcano

This was a fun day. We started early to back track from Tortuguerro back down the river, getting briefly stuck on the sand bar and then getting back on the bus. We stopped at the Dole banana plantation to see the process which I will describe when I have more time.

We ran across a suspension bridge at another bathroom stop, something definitely to miss. We arrived at Magic Mountain Hotel in La Fortuna. This is a new hotel of 1 year of age and is quite beautiful although their architect definitely did not have much experience. We got soaked in a downpour and after dinner, just rested for anothe river cruise scheduled for the morning.

Hi Lee
Hope you and Earline survived the last suspension bridge held together by writhing snakes. Does not sound like a rocking chair retirement location.
