Day Six: Garabito and Puntarenas
Today our journey took us from the rain, magic and coolness of the cloud forest and jungle to the warm, world-class, breath-taking beauty of the black sand beaches of Costa Rica.
During our journey, we were stopped for road construction. We did not miss the opportunity to jump out of the SUV and photograph the countryside. We were rewarded with many beautiful, unplanned photos, turning an unexpected delay into a boon.
Crocodiles lined the banks of the river in Garabito. Puntarenas offered a dazzling display of monkeys, birds, insects, mariposas and flowers. We visited the black sand beach at sunset and were richly rewarded with an otherworldly experience of peace and beauty. The enormity and majesty of the site was humbling and satisfying to the soul.
Pura Vida!
